Buick Excelle Maintenance Schedule?
2 Answers
Buick Excelle minor maintenance is recommended every 5,000 kilometers or 6 months of vehicle use, while major maintenance should be performed every 10,000 kilometers or 1 year of vehicle use. Below is relevant information about vehicle maintenance: 1. Vehicle maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain components of a vehicle, also known as vehicle servicing. 2. Vehicle maintenance primarily includes servicing the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, and other components. 3. The purpose of vehicle maintenance is to maintain a clean appearance, ensure normal technical conditions, eliminate potential hazards, prevent faults, slow down deterioration processes, and extend the service life. Routine maintenance includes replacing engine oil and oil filter, replacing the three filters (air, cabin air, and fuel filters), as well as checking and replenishing brake fluid, coolant, and power steering fluid.
Speaking of the Buick Excelle's maintenance schedule, I remember my experience. I've been driving it for almost three years since it was new. According to the manual's recommendation, a routine maintenance is usually required every 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, whichever comes first. Last time, because I was busy with work, I delayed it for two months. When I finally went to change the oil, I found the oil had turned black and the filter was clogged. The mechanic said this could affect the engine's lifespan. Now, I stick to the schedule. Every time, besides changing the oil and filter, they also check small items like brakes and tire wear. Delaying maintenance can turn small issues into big problems, potentially leading to expensive repairs. If you drive a lot and frequently take highways, I suggest checking around 4,000 kilometers to avoid breakdowns on the road. If you drive occasionally, sticking to the 6-month interval is also safe. In short, developing a habit can save you a lot of trouble.
