It is best to change the engine oil within 500 kilometers. The following is an introduction about Buick: 1. Introduction: As a model of top-tier MPVs, the Buick GL8 has achieved batch exports with its advantages of luxury, powerful performance, and spacious comfort. 2. Significance: It has been praised by Southeast Asian media as the 'perfect MPV.' It has also become the ceremonial vehicle for major international events such as Beijing's Olympic bid and APEC meetings, with guests including Bill Gates, Yo-Yo Ma, and Pavarotti. 3. Influence: The 8-seat theater type and luxury theater type were the first in China's mid-to-high-end car market to be originally equipped with an audio-visual playback system capable of playing CDs, VCDs, and MP3s. Based on Buick's unique silent cabin, it creates the effect of Buick's 'mobile audio-visual world,' pushing the luxurious experience represented by the 'land business class' to the extreme.
I think the fault code 82 in Buick usually indicates a problem with the cooling system, such as the coolant temperature being too low. It's hard to say how long you can keep driving with this issue—sometimes you might manage to go dozens of kilometers without any trouble, but the risks are too high. For example, if the coolant circulation is poor, the engine can overheat, and in severe cases, it may damage the engine core or radiator on the spot. The repair costs can be shocking, and there's even a risk of smoke or fire, which affects safety. I've encountered a similar situation before—I stubbornly kept driving and ended up stranded halfway, wasting a lot of time. It's best to stop the car immediately, turn off the engine, call a tow truck, and take it to a professional shop. Let them use a diagnostic tool to identify the issue and replace the necessary parts. Remember, never take chances—safety should always come first. Regularly checking your car's cooling system can prevent such unpleasant incidents.
