2 Answers
The second maintenance of Emgrand GL should be performed at approximately 7,500 kilometers. The items for the second maintenance include: 1. Replacement of engine oil, oil filter, and air conditioning filter element; 2. ECU inspection. The Emgrand GL is a compact car. Taking the Emgrand GL 2021 UP Manual Leading Style as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4,725 mm, width 1,802 mm, height 1,478 mm, with a wheelbase of 2,700 mm and a fuel tank capacity of 55 liters. The Emgrand GL 2021 UP Manual Leading Style is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 104 kW at 5,200 rpm, and a maximum torque of 235 N·m at 1,600 to 4,000 rpm.
I recently had the second maintenance service for my Emgrand GL, which has run about 16,000 kilometers. I remember the first maintenance was done at 5,000 kilometers, and the salesperson recommended the second service between 15,000 and 20,000 kilometers, depending on personal usage frequency. My owner's manual clearly states that a check-up is recommended around every 15,000 kilometers in total mileage. During the service, fresh engine oil and an oil filter were replaced, and the brake system and tire pressure were checked—the whole process was quite comprehensive. Last time, I delayed the service by 2,000 kilometers, and the car developed some minor noises. Now, with timely maintenance, it runs much smoother. Developing this habit not only extends the engine's lifespan but also saves money and hassle. I strongly advise new car owners to follow the manual and not be lazy.
