How many liters of engine oil should be added to the Buick Excelle?
1 Answers
The Buick Excelle requires approximately 4L of engine oil during an oil change. After adding the oil, you should check the oil dipstick to confirm the exact amount. Oil dipstick scale standards: To determine whether the amount of oil added is sufficient, check the oil dipstick after adding the oil. The dipstick has two marks: a maximum and a minimum. The correct oil level should not exceed the maximum mark or fall below the minimum mark; it should be between these two marks. How to check the oil level: After adding the oil, start the vehicle and then turn it off. Wait for 3 minutes before checking the oil level. This is because the oil filter is also replaced during an oil change, and the new filter initially contains no oil. After starting the vehicle, oil flows into the filter. Waiting 3 minutes allows the oil to settle back into the oil pan, ensuring a more accurate reading. Do not check the oil level on a slope, as the tilted position of the vehicle will cause the oil in the pan to tilt as well, leading to an inaccurate reading. Always ensure the dipstick is held perpendicular to the ground for the most accurate measurement.
