How many kilometers can the Buick LaCrosse run after the fuel gauge light comes on?
2 Answers
When the fuel gauge light of the Buick LaCrosse comes on, it can generally run for about 50 kilometers. If driving in urban areas or under poor road conditions, 30 kilometers is a more reliable estimate. It is recommended to refuel promptly when the fuel light comes on or is about to come on. Below are some related introductions about fuel consumption: 1. For household cars, filling half a tank is the most economical: For vehicles frequently driven in urban areas, half a tank is the ideal state. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers with half a tank is about half a liter less than with a full tank. 2. Using synthetic engine oil can save fuel: Good driving habits are the primary factor in fuel economy, followed by using high-quality synthetic engine oil to reduce unnecessary energy loss.
My LaCrosse has been running for almost five years. When the fuel light comes on, I've calculated several times that it can conservatively run about 50 to 70 kilometers, depending on the situation. On the highway at a steady speed of 60 km/h, it might last up to 80 kilometers, but in city traffic with stop-and-go conditions, it can only go about 50 kilometers before stalling. Once during a business trip on the highway, I pushed it 60 kilometers after the light came on before refueling, almost stranding me on the roadside—it was terrifying. I recommend not taking the risk; find a gas station as soon as possible to refuel. Otherwise, if the fuel pump burns out, the repair won’t be cheap. Develop a habit of refueling when the tank is a quarter full to avoid these nerve-wracking moments—it’s better for the car too.
