What are the reasons for the loud engine noise in the Boyue?

The reasons for the loud engine noise in the Boyue include: 1. Engine overheating causing a loss of power; 2. Internal engine issues, such as valve blockage. If the engine operates for an extended period, leading to surface overheating, the cooling system may fail. The first step to address loud engine noise in the Boyue is to check the cooling system. If the cooling system has problems, it may lead to exhaust blockage, as the vacuum tube could potentially break. At this point, steam or hot air may escape from the engine, producing a hissing sound. Therefore, upon hearing such noise, it is essential to inspect the cooling system for any issues. The dimensions of the Boyue are 4519mm in length, 1831mm in width, and 1694mm in height.
As a Geely Boyue owner, after driving for a year and noticing increased engine noise, I would first check several common points. It might be due to a dirty air filter restricting airflow, making the engine sound labored like it's oxygen-deprived—replacing the filter yourself is easy and saves money. Additionally, worn or loose engine belts can cause squeaking, especially noticeable during cold starts. For older vehicles, carbon buildup in the combustion chamber may affect smooth operation; adding fuel system cleaner and highway driving can help. Don’t overlook whether the cooling fan is running too aggressively—under heavy load on hot days, full-speed fan operation naturally increases noise. Old or incorrect viscosity engine oil, or low oil levels, can also make the engine sound rougher; regular maintenance with quality oil solves this. Deteriorated soundproofing seals may also allow more noise into the cabin, significantly reducing driving comfort.
