1. Crankshaft Position Sensor (CPS) Failure
The sensor degrades or fails electrically, typically due to age or contamination.

Fuel contamination (from infrequent diesel filter changes or poor-quality fuel) causes micro-debris to lodge in the suction control valve or injector internals, reducing fuel rail pressure and causing engine performance faults[2].
