This is a big one. Water ingress via blocked bulkhead drain holes, ridiculous design flaw. Look for evidence of water ingress in the front footwells, odor, check electrics as a result. It is simple job to clear them but this is usually done once it is too late.

Other than that they are reliable, and the engine is trouble free once oil changes have been done on time.

Oil intervals are too long IMO, but those are the specified intervals.
