Under the air conditioning filter, which is on the right side of the engine compartment near the windshield. For newer models, it is also located on the right side of the engine compartment near the windshield. Below is some related information: 1. BMW Series: BMW (Bavarian Motor Works), fully known in Chinese as Bavarian Engine Manufacturing Plant Co., Ltd., is a German luxury car brand. BMW's vehicle series include the i, X, Z, and pure numeric models such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, as well as the M series (BMW's official high-performance modification division) based on improvements to these series. 2. BMW Development: Founded in 1916, BMW is headquartered in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. The blue and white logo of BMW represents the colors of the Bavarian state flag. Over the past century, BMW has evolved from an aircraft engine manufacturer into a corporate group that focuses on premium cars and is renowned worldwide for its aircraft engines, off-road vehicles, and motorcycles, ranking among the top automobile companies in the world.
Speaking of BMW's air intakes, as someone who frequently drives them, I can tell you they're generally located within the kidney grille at the front or slightly below. That position directly draws in fresh air to supply the engine, a clever design by BMW to enhance engine efficiency and cooling. Having driven several different models like the 3 Series and X5, I've noticed the air intakes are roughly in this area, though newer models might have them adjusted slightly more forward. During daily driving, I make sure to keep an eye out for leaves and debris that might block the intakes, as that can reduce performance. After each car wash, I also take a moment to wipe around the grille with a cloth to ensure smooth airflow, which really helps maintain the car's performance and prolongs engine life.
