Engine 4G63-DOHC is known for durability but common issues include head gasket failure, turbocharger wear (especially in Evo models), and timing belt wear. Diagnosis involves checking for coolant leaks, overheating signs, and unusual noises. Prevent head gasket failure by maintaining proper cooling system function and avoiding overheating.
