Where is the air intake of Lavida Plus located?
2 Answers
The engine air intake of Lavida Plus is located on the right side of the engine compartment closest to the windshield. Open the front engine cover to see the filter screen, which is the air intake. Exterior design: The new Lavida adopts the latest family-style front grille. The rear light clusters feature smoked treatment with LED light sources. The trunk lid is equipped with a slightly upturned rear spoiler, paired with single-sided dual chrome exhaust pipes and 16-inch aluminum alloy wheels, further enhancing the overall visual impact. Powertrain: The new Lavida offers two engine options from the EA211 series: a 1.6L and a 1.4TSI. The 1.6L engine delivers a maximum power of 81kW at 5800rpm and a maximum torque of 155Nm at 3800rpm. The 1.4TSI engine produces a maximum power of 110kW at 5000rpm and a maximum torque of 250Nm between 1750-3000rpm.
The air intake of the Lavida Plus is usually located at the front of the vehicle, specifically below the grille area at the front end. I often drive similar cars, and the design position of the air intake is to allow smooth airflow into the engine, ensuring power output. If it gets blocked, such as by leaves or debris, it can lead to insufficient engine power, increased fuel consumption, or even overheating and breakdown. During regular car washes or maintenance, it's advisable to briefly check that area to ensure there are no obstructions. This area is also accessed when replacing the air filter, so it's best to replace the filter regularly to prevent dust buildup from affecting performance. If you're cleaning it yourself, gently blow or sweep it clean—avoid using a high-pressure water jet to prevent damage to components. If you notice increased engine noise or sluggish acceleration, it's likely an air intake issue and should be addressed promptly.
