Heater Core:
Heater core leaks are common, leading to coolant smell inside the cabin and fogged windows.
Oil Pan Gasket:
Oil pan gasket leaks are common with age and mileage.
Vanos Seals:
Degradation of the VANOS piston seals can lead to rough idle, hesitation, and loss of low-end power (specifically for M50TU engines).
