The high-revving V10 engine can consume oil, especially under hard use. While some consumption is normal, excessive use may indicate issues with piston rings, valve seals, or PCV system. Regular checks are essential. Estimated repair cost: $2,000 - $5,000.

High temperatures and vibrations can lead to leaks in the exhaust system, particularly at manifold gaskets or flex pipes. This can result in a loss of power and an audible exhaust note change. Estimated repair cost: $500 - $1,500.
