As an owner who has driven this car, I must say the engine choice for the Geely ICON is quite solid. It mainly uses a 1.5TD three-cylinder turbocharged engine, model JLH-3G15TD, which previously won a Top 10 Engine award. Driving it feels effortless at the start, with a quick response to the throttle, making it particularly suitable for stop-and-go city traffic. While some might worry about the vibration of a three-cylinder engine, in practice, it's hardly noticeable, and it's quite fuel-efficient—I get around 6 liters per 100 kilometers on the highway. By the way, the new model also offers a 1.5T four-cylinder version as an option, providing more choices for different needs. If you enjoy light off-roading, this powertrain handles slopes and bumps with ease. I recommend trying the sport mode during a test drive; when the RPM rises, you can really feel the push-back sensation.

I often help friends pick cars, and Geely's engines have indeed made significant progress in recent years. Take the 1.5TD model JLH-3G15TD on the ICON for example—don't underestimate this 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine; its specs are impressive, with a maximum horsepower of 177 hp and a peak torque of 255 Nm. This engine utilizes low-pressure EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) technology, effectively reducing knock. The mid-range acceleration is particularly satisfying, with a crisp response from 40 to 80 km/h, making overtaking a confident experience. Paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, gear shifts are almost imperceptibly smooth. It's more than adequate for daily commuting, and even occasional mountain drives won't let you down. Maintenance is also quite convenient, as most regular repair shops can handle it, and spare parts are affordable.

As a practical person who studies commuter cars daily, the 1.5TD engine (JLH-3G15TD) in the Geely ICON offers great value for money. The three-cylinder design saves space and fuel, with urban commuting fuel consumption around 7 liters per 100 km, and it runs fine on 92-octane gasoline. The power is adequate but not aggressive, and climbing hills with the AC on can be slightly challenging. Maintenance costs are reasonable, with minor services costing around 400 yuan. The new model adds a four-cylinder 1.5T option, but it's more expensive. I found the rear seat space to be good, and the engine noise control was better than expected, with wind noise being the main issue at high speeds. For family commuting, this powertrain is fully satisfactory.

What type of oil should be added to the transfer case?

The transfer case requires ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid). Below is relevant information about transfer cases: Working Principle: Judging from the transfer case's shift lever, it more closely resembles a traditional part-time four-wheel-drive system, with the key difference being that it is equipped with a center differential. When engaging 4H mode, it not only allows high-speed driving on gravel roads but also enables full-time four-wheel-drive functionality on regular paved roads. The 4HLC and 4LLC options it provides represent four-wheel-drive modes with the center differential locked, at which point its functionality becomes identical to the 4H and 4L modes of a part-time four-wheel-drive system. Introduction: A transfer case is a device that distributes the engine's power, capable of directing power to the rear axle or simultaneously to both front and rear axles.

Is the Exhaust Monitoring System Warning Light Serious?

The exhaust monitoring system warning light is not serious. Here is some relevant information about the exhaust monitoring system warning light: Concept: The exhaust monitoring light indicates poor engine performance and non-compliant exhaust emissions. The ECU (Engine Control Unit) generally has a self-diagnosis and protection function. When a system fault occurs, it automatically records the fault code in RAM and implements protective measures by reading substitute programs from the inherent program to maintain engine operation. Causes: Issues such as faulty spark plugs, ignition coil failure, fuel pump malfunction, or clogged fuel lines can lead to poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture in the engine. Poor combustion results in engine carbon buildup or knocking problems, which are ultimately detected by the engine's oxygen sensors. After being reported to the ECU, the fault light will naturally illuminate as a warning.

What happens when the wheel cylinder fails?

The following situations may occur when the wheel cylinder fails: Abnormal noise during braking: When applying the brakes while driving, the braking system may emit a sharp and harsh metal friction sound. This could be caused by thin brake pads, poor-quality brake pads, foreign objects in the brake pads, or rust on the brake discs. In most cases, pressing the brakes a few more times can alleviate the noise. Brake shudder: During emergency braking, you may feel the brake pedal "kicking back" with a sensation like "thump, thump, thump." This is normal and indicates that the ABS is functioning. Soft brakes: When braking while driving, the deceleration is weak, and the braking distance is long. The causes of poor braking performance in a hydraulic braking system can generally be judged based on the brake pedal travel, the feel of the pedal (soft or hard), and the stability after pressing the brake pedal.
