Where is the BMW air intake located?
1 Answers
Open the engine hood to locate the air filter, and the area connected to the air filter is the air intake. Below is a relevant introduction: Definition: The air intake is an opening in an air duct or similar structure that utilizes the forward motion of the vehicle to collect air and direct it into the engine or ventilation system. Function: Air intake designs vary in characteristics, but their function remains the same—to introduce fresh air into the engine and provide ventilation and cooling for heat sources such as the air conditioning condenser, radiator, and oil cooler. Whether the air intake is designed as a single or double-layered structure largely depends on visual styling requirements, as the design of the intake grille (i.e., the air intake) in the front section of the vehicle, which is often the visual focal point, best represents brand identity. Examples include BMW's "kidney grille," Volkswagen and Audi's "singleframe grille," and Jeep's "vertical slats."
