Buyer's Guide to Volvo Cold Air Intake Systems

How Cold Air Intake Works

Also known as an induction system, cold air intake systems bring colder outside air into your engine. Since that colder air is denser, it offers a higher volume of oxygen -- which leads to improved engine efficiency and better performance.

How a Cold Air Intake System is Constructed

A cold air intake system can be made from materials likes rubber, metal, plastic, or even a composite such as carbon fiber or fiberglass. Most feature a snorkel that sits outside of your vehicle and draws air into the airbox. Many even have heat shields that protect the air filter. They're typically placed where they can draw air in from the front or side of the engine bay, while some place the air filter into the wall of the fender to better draw in that cool air.

How to Spot A Faulty Cold Air Intake

Signs of trouble include:

• Uneven engine idling
• Your engine revs higher than usual
• Poorer engine performance
• The "Check Engine" dash light comes on -- though this is a generic alert that needs further investigation
