What are the pros and cons of engine guards?

[KayleeAnn]

Here is a detailed introduction to the advantages and disadvantages of installing an engine guard: 1. Protect the engine: Most installed engine guards are made of metal, so even if the vehicle experiences underbody scraping or impact, it won't cause damage to the engine. 2. Prevent engine bottom corrosion or rust: For example, in situations like driving through waterlogged roads or during rainy or snowy weather, sewage on the ground may cause corrosion to the vehicle's underbody, while acid rain could lead to rust. Installing an engine guard can, to some extent, isolate such pollution and provide certain protection to the engine's bottom. 3. Safety concerns: Installing a metal engine guard at the bottom of the engine might affect the engine's ability to sink in case of a collision. 4. Impact on heat dissipation: Installing a guard at the engine's bottom places the engine in a relatively enclosed space, which may affect the vehicle's heat dissipation.
