How many liters of transmission oil does the New Excelle 15N require?
2 Answers
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.
