I guess most common is the fact that a foot mat will get the pedal stuck. On turbo fitted cars sometimes the mounting can fail and it will suck oil into the combustion chamber. Even when you turn the engine off and no diesel is reaching the engine anymore, it will still keep burning the oil until the oil is empty and your engine is ruined.
