The Octavia tachometer cannot be adjusted; only the functional display information on the instrument panel can be modified. The tachometer displays values from 0 to 8, which should be multiplied by 1000 to obtain the actual RPM. When starting the vehicle, the engine speed typically reaches around 1200-1500 RPM. Once the engine stabilizes, the speed drops to approximately 800 RPM. During gear shifts, the engine speed usually ranges between 2000-2500 RPM. Reasons for the tachometer not moving include: 1. A disconnected flexible shaft inside the tachometer causing the pointer to stop; 2. The tachometer pointer falling off or getting stuck; 3. Foreign objects inside the instrument panel preventing the pointer from moving; 4. Wiring issues within the tachometer, such as aging or breakage.

What is the fuel tank capacity of a 2012 Cruze in liters?

The 2012 Cruze has a total of 8 models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 60 liters. The vehicles are equipped with 1.6L and 1.8L naturally aspirated engines, as well as a 1.6L turbocharged engine. All models come with either a 5-speed manual, 6-speed manual, or 6-speed automatic transmission, and all models feature front-wheel drive. The fuel tank capacity of the 2013 Cruze is 60 liters. Starting from the 2015 model, the fuel tank capacity of the Cruze decreased: the 2015 model has 54 liters, the 2016 model has 47 liters, and the 2017 and 2018 models have 52 liters. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, and there is additional space from the safe fill level to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with 'E' and 'F'. When the needle is close to 'E', it indicates low fuel, and when it is near 'F', it means the fuel level is sufficient.

Does the Geely Xingrui have auto start-stop?

Geely Xingrui does not come equipped with an auto start-stop function across all its models. The details are as follows: How auto start-stop works: By integrating an enhanced motor with idle start-stop capability into a traditional engine, the system completely shuts off the engine when the vehicle meets the conditions for idle stop. When the vehicle needs to move forward again, the idle start-stop motor system quickly responds to the driver's start command, rapidly restarting the engine for seamless transition, thereby significantly reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. Models with auto start-stop: Among imported car brands, Bentley, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Porsche, Jaguar, Lexus, Peugeot, Citroën, and others are strongly equipped with auto start-stop systems.
