Known Issues
Rod Bearings: The S54 engine is known for potential rod bearing wear, especially if oil changes are neglected or if the engine is driven hard from cold. Early replacement is recommended for preventative maintenance.
Subframe Mounts: Cracking or separation of the rear subframe mounting points can occur due to chassis stress, particularly with spirited driving. Reinforcement kits are available.
Oil Pump Drive: The oil pump drive (chain) can stretch or the bolt can loosen, leading to oil starvation. Regular inspection of the oil pump bolt torque is advised.
Throttle Actuators: The electronic throttle actuators for the individual throttle bodies can fail, leading to rough idling or limp-home mode. Cleaning and recalibration or replacement may be needed.
Vanos System: The VANOS system can develop leaks (seals) or the solenoid valves can fail, affecting engine performance and idle quality.
