As someone who has driven a van for many years, I find the air filter location of the Wuling Sunshine quite standard—it's right in the engine compartment. When you open the front hood, you'll usually spot a black or dark gray rectangular box on the left side of the engine or near the front grille. The cover is secured with clips or screws, and once opened, you’ll see the filter inside. The design is very convenient because I’ve often encountered dirty filters causing the engine to struggle and consume more fuel. So, I recommend checking it every 10,000 to 20,000 kilometers. Replacing it is simple—no professional tools needed, just some effort at home. But be careful not to let debris fall in, as it could damage the engine. Regularly cleaning dust from the engine compartment during maintenance can also extend the filter’s lifespan.
As a long-time Wuling Sunshine owner, the air filter is located under the front hood near the engine – just lift the hood and you'll find a box-shaped component. Opening its cover reveals the filter inside. Last time I replaced it myself, it took less than 10 minutes – simply unclip the fasteners, remove the dirty filter and insert a new one. The position is very accessible, making it beginner-friendly. Often overlooked, air filters play a crucial role by preventing dust from entering the engine. Neglecting replacement can lead to poor engine breathing, sluggish acceleration, and even increased maintenance costs. I usually check mine during routine maintenance or replace it earlier when frequently driving in heavily polluted areas.
