The air intake of the Boyue is located on the car's radiator beam. Below is some relevant information about the Boyue: 1. Overview: The Geely Boyue integrates Chinese cultural elements with international fashion trends in its exterior design. It also excels in intelligence, leading the new SUV trend with its smart safety, driving, comfort, and connectivity features. 2. Powertrain: The Geely Boyue offers a variety of powertrain options, including a 1.8TD engine, a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, and an Australian DSI 6-speed automatic transmission, allowing for multiple powertrain combinations. The 1.8TD engine in the Boyue is an upgraded high-power version based on the Borui's 1.8TD "China's Top 10 Engines of 2015," delivering a maximum power of 135kw/5500rpm and a maximum torque of 285N-m/1500-4000rpm, providing strong and excellent performance.
I've been driving the Boyue for over five years, and I've noticed that the air intake is located under the front bumper, near the grille area. It's most noticeable while driving. This is the entry point where the engine draws in air, and it's positioned in front of the radiator to automatically intake air for cooling the engine at high speeds. I remember once after heavy rain, some leaves got stuck in the air intake, causing the car to shake when starting. I quickly cleaned it out to fix the issue. If not cleared, it could get blocked, leading to common problems like engine overheating, increased fuel consumption, and sluggish acceleration. I recommend parking away from areas with lots of fallen leaves and checking under the hood every few months to sweep out accumulated dust—just wiping it with a damp cloth is enough. Regular maintenance should also include checking the air filter, which is located right behind the air intake. Replacing it isn't too troublesome. Knowing the exact location can save a lot on repair costs and improve driving safety.
