The New Excelle 15N requires automatic transmission oil for replacement. The exact amount depends on the size of the transmission, but a complete and thorough oil change requires an exchange machine. If only draining without cleaning or exchanging, 4 to 8 liters are needed. For a complete exchange where all the old oil in the hub is replaced thoroughly, approximately 12 liters are required. The naming convention of the new Buick Excelle and an introduction to transmission oil are as follows: 1. Introduction one: 18T represents the use of a 1.4T turbocharged engine, while 15N represents a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine. The numbers 15 and 18, according to the official explanation, are derived from torque and acceleration calculations and do not represent displacement. 2. Introduction two: The primary function of transmission oil is to maintain the cleanliness of the gear system and to lubricate and prolong the life of the transmission components. Due to different transmission designs, there are manual transmissions and automatic transmissions. Each transmission design has different technical requirements. Even the same model of transmission configured in different vehicle models will have differences in torque, weight, speed, structure, etc. Therefore, the original manufacturer specifies its own dedicated transmission oil.

The transmission oil capacity for the New Excelle 15N is generally around 2.5 to 3.5 liters, depending on whether it's a manual or automatic type, with automatics requiring slightly more. As someone who frequently maintains my vehicle, I recommend changing the fluid every 50,000 kilometers or every three years to protect the transmission's lifespan. A cost-saving method is to buy the oil yourself and DIY, but be careful not to overfill or underfill during the operation, as this can affect shifting smoothness. Pay attention to your driving habits as well—if you notice rough shifting or unusual noises, check the oil quality immediately. Addressing issues promptly can avoid costly major repairs. In short, choosing the right OEM oil and regular maintenance will keep your car running smoothly and lasting longer.

When driving on urban expressways, if the driver fails to use a seatbelt as required, the penalty is a 50-yuan fine and 2 demerit points. When traveling on highways, if a passenger fails to wear a seatbelt as required, the penalty is a 20-yuan fine. When driving on roads other than highways or urban expressways, if the driver fails to use a seatbelt as required, the penalty is a 50-yuan fine with no demerit points. According to the Road Traffic Safety Law, when a motor vehicle is in motion, passengers in the front seat must also wear seatbelts. The regulation requiring passengers in the front seat to wear seatbelts has been clearly stipulated in the old traffic rules. For any passenger in the front seat not wearing a seatbelt, the on-duty traffic police can impose a fine of 5-10 yuan.

Does proceeding after the front of the car has just passed the stop line when the light turns red count as running a red light?

When the red light turns on, if a vehicle crosses the stop line, moving from behind the line to beyond it, this constitutes a traffic violation. However, the following scenarios apply: If the vehicle crosses the stop line by a short distance without obstructing pedestrians or other vehicles, it is considered crossing the stop line but not running a red light. Nevertheless, this is still a violation. According to Article 4, Item 5 of the 'Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Safety Violations': Failing to drive or stop as required at an intersection results in a 2-point penalty. If the vehicle crosses the stop line by a significant distance, obstructing pedestrians or other vehicles, it will be deemed as running a red light. When traffic cameras capture red-light violations, they typically take three photos as evidence: the vehicle before it crosses the stop line with the red light on; the vehicle proceeding past the stop line with the red light on; and the vehicle fully entering the intersection. These three photos clearly document the vehicle's movement during the red light. Article 38 of the 'Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China' states: Motor vehicle and non-motor vehicle signal lights indicate: When the green light is on, vehicles are permitted to proceed, but turning vehicles must not obstruct the passage of straight-moving vehicles or pedestrians. When the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to proceed. When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from proceeding. When the red light is on, right-turning vehicles may proceed if they do not obstruct the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians. Article 26 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China' states: Traffic signal lights consist of red, green, and yellow lights. A red light indicates prohibition of passage, a green light indicates permission to proceed, and a yellow light serves as a warning. Article 90: Motor vehicle drivers who violate road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding road passage shall be given a warning or fined. If other provisions of this law apply, penalties shall be imposed accordingly. Precautions regarding parking: Do not leave the vehicle: Temporary parking on the roadside for passenger drop-off or pick-up is acceptable for 2-3 minutes. However, leaving the vehicle unattended, even if the engine is running, is generally considered illegal parking. Temporary parking is limited to 5 minutes: Even if there are temporary parking signs on the motorway, parking is not allowed within the yellow grid lines on either side of the motorway. Parking within yellow grid lines is explicitly prohibited by traffic regulations. No-parking zones: Parking is prohibited within 30 meters of bus stops, emergency stations, gas stations, fire hydrants, or fire stations, except when using these facilities. Parking is also prohibited at intersections, railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads, bridges, steep slopes, tunnels, and within 50 meters of these locations.

What to Do When the Automatic Transmission Handbrake Won't Release?

If the automatic transmission handbrake won't release, try pressing the handbrake button while pulling it up first and then pushing it down. If this doesn't work, take it to a repair shop. The consequences of driving with the handbrake engaged are as follows: Driving with the handbrake engaged for an extended period directly causes wear and tear on the handbrake. Moreover, the pressure on the handbrake isn't constant while driving; it changes with speed, going over speed bumps, or even hitting obstacles. This means the handbrake undergoes continuous wear of varying degrees during the drive. In severe cases, it can lead to brake failure, smoke, or even fire. Prolonged driving with the handbrake engaged may also cause the brake caliper to seize, brake fluid to leak, or the brake fluid temperature to rise excessively, resulting in complete loss of braking function. If you notice a strong burning smell or smoke coming from the rear of the car, immediately reduce speed, apply the brakes, and release the handbrake.

In which year did China's National V vehicle emission standards come into effect?

China's National V emission standards, officially known as the Fifth Stage National Motor Vehicle Emission Standards, were implemented nationwide starting from January 1, 2017. Below is relevant information about emission standards: National V: The Fifth Stage National Motor Vehicle Pollutant Emission Standards, referred to as "National V standards," feature emission control levels equivalent to Europe's currently implemented Euro 5 standards. The European Union has enforced these since 2009, imposing stricter limits on vehicle emissions such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), and particulate matter (PM). Each upgrade from National I to National IV reduced single-vehicle pollution by 30% to 50%. Comparison with National IV: The new standards reduce NOx emissions by 25% for light-duty vehicles and 43% for heavy-duty vehicles. Taking Shanghai's annual vehicle registration volume of approximately 350,000 units as an example, the annual NOx emissions from new vehicles are expected to decrease by about 1,000 tons. Additionally, China's National V standards match the emission control levels of Europe's currently implemented Euro 5 standards.
