Reasons for the Geely Boyue shaking when accelerating in second gear: (1) During driving, the car engine shakes more severely than normal, and sometimes there is even a problem of failing to start once. This may be due to a dirty throttle, excessive carbon deposits in the fuel injector or intake tract. Under cold conditions, carbon deposits can absorb some of the fuel, and if the fuel does not completely enter the cylinder for combustion, it can cause unstable idling and difficulty starting. (2) When driving at high speeds to a certain speed, the steering wheel can feel noticeably shaky or jumpy, but this is not obvious at low speeds. In fact, there are many issues that can cause car engine shaking. Here, we first need to rule out abnormal shaking caused by engine faults, as engine faults usually also appear at low speeds. Solutions for car body shaking during acceleration: (1) If the car shakes noticeably during acceleration, you can first visually check whether the balance weights on the wheel rims are missing or if there is any obvious deformation in the wheel hub. If there are no issues in the above areas, then professional testing equipment is needed, as subtle deformations in the steering tie rod, suspension, or wheel hub are difficult to detect with the naked eye. First, check whether the left and right half shafts are bent. Then, disassemble and inspect whether the inner walls of the left and right inner CV joints are worn and have pits. In most cases, this is caused by damage to the inner CV joint. (2) Most modern cars have front-mounted engines and front-wheel drive, and their inner CV joints are often telescopic to accommodate changes in the relative position of the transmission drive terminal and the drive wheels during vehicle movement. Upon disassembly and inspection, it can be found that the inner walls of the inner CV joints, which frequently contact the outer shells of the needle roller bearings—i.e., the parts that transmit torque (stress points)—have developed pits. (3) During rapid acceleration, the engine and transmission assembly performs a slight lateral tilting motion, thereby changing the position of the aforementioned stress points. Since there is a certain angle between the axial direction of the half shaft and the inner CV joint, these stress points continuously change position along the axial direction during the rotation of the CV joint. The force generated by this change continuously pushes the car body left and right, resulting in the aforementioned "sifting" sensation. Replace the damaged inner CV joint or half shaft.

I also experienced the issue of shaking during second-gear acceleration when driving my Geely Boyue, which was quite annoying. Common causes include loose engine mounts, where engine vibrations are transmitted to the body during acceleration; or wear on the second-gear transmission gears, leading to rough shifting. Unbalanced tires or damaged suspension can also cause shaking at specific speeds. In my case, it was a faulty ignition coil causing unstable engine operation, which was resolved after replacement. I recommend finding a reliable repair shop for a thorough inspection, focusing on these areas—don’t skimp on costs. Safety comes first when driving, as shaking can affect control. Address it early to avoid regrets. Remember, regular maintenance can prevent such issues, like checking tires and suspension every six months.

When driving a Geely Boyue, if there is shaking during acceleration in second gear, I believe it poses significant safety hazards. Unstable body movement may lead to loss of steering control, especially increasing accident risks on highways. Possible causes could be loose engine mounts, aging spark plugs, or worn clutch plates resulting in uneven power delivery. In daily driving when encountering this issue, I would immediately slow down and pull over for inspection. For prevention, it's recommended to conduct a full vehicle check every 5,000 kilometers, including transmission fluid and suspension system. My experience suggests not taking it lightly and promptly visiting a 4S shop for diagnosis to avoid major overhauls later. This can also save fuel costs and make the car more durable.

My Boyue used to shake during second-gear acceleration, and I self-diagnosed it as a spark plug issue—replacing them fixed the problem. However, other potential causes like uneven tire pressure or a loose engine mount can also cause shaking during acceleration. Try a simple self-check: after starting the car, feel the engine stability in neutral. If there's slight shaking, focus on checking the spark plugs or mounts. Don’t attempt random fixes; get a professional inspection for safety.

When driving the Geely Boyue, the shaking during acceleration is particularly affecting the driving mood, making the car feel unstable. A friend analyzed that it might be due to a damaged suspension system or a faulty clutch causing uneven power transmission. I usually pay attention to comfort while driving, so I immediately checked the tires and chassis when I noticed the issue. Replacing spark plugs and filters during maintenance can help alleviate the problem. I suggest you visit a professional shop as soon as possible and not wait for it to worsen.

Driving an old car year-round, I've encountered many instances of shaking during second-gear acceleration. The main causes are aging engine mounts or insufficient transmission fluid, which can make the body noticeably shake during acceleration. Prevention is simple: during regular maintenance, check the transmission and suspension components, such as replacing spark plugs every six months to ensure smooth engine operation. This not only resolves the shaking but also extends the car's lifespan. Experience says don't delay small issues, or they'll become more troublesome and costly to fix later.

What are the effects of driving in heavy rain on a car?

The effects of driving in heavy rain on a car are as follows: 1. Damage to the car body: After the vehicle gets wet in the rain, rainwater not only remains on the surface of the car body but also seeps into the gaps underneath the car. When driving in the rain, road sludge can also splash into these gaps. 2. Damage to the paint surface: Rainwater in urban areas generally has high acidity, and the acidic components in the rainwater can strongly corrode the car's paint surface, causing long-term damage that is difficult to repair. 3. Damage to the ignition system: While driving, the temperature inside the ignition system located in the engine compartment rises accordingly. When encountering rainy weather, the cold air outside the car meets the hot air inside the engine compartment, causing condensation to form on the ignition system. If the condensation cannot evaporate in time, it can affect the operation of the ignition system, leading to symptoms of difficult ignition in the vehicle.
