Most common problems, symptoms & fixes for the RFU engine.

Engine RFU commonly faces issues like ignition coil failure, sensor malfunctions (especially the crankshaft position sensor), and intake manifold vacuum leaks. Diagnosis involves checking for misfires, rough idling, and error codes via an OBD scanner. Preventive measures include regular spark plug and coil inspections, ensuring clean air filters, and timely replacement of sensors. Vacuum leaks can be detected using smoke tests.
