Most common problems, symptoms & fixes for the G4GC engine.
Engine G4GC commonly faces issues like timing chain wear, oil leaks from valve cover gaskets, and occasional misfires due to ignition coil or spark plug faults. Diagnosis involves checking for engine noise indicating timing chain slack, inspecting for oil seepage around gaskets, and scanning for misfire codes. Preventive maintenance includes regular oil changes with recommended grades to ensure proper lubrication and timely replacement of spark plugs and ignition components. Solutions involve replacing worn timing chains or guides, renewing gaskets to stop leaks, and swapping faulty ignition parts. Keeping the cooling system in good condition also helps prevent overheating-related damage.
