In the Envision's control panel, adjust the vehicle's audio center slightly forward or backward, then increase the volume. The optimal sound effect is achieved when tuned to the appropriate position. Below is an introduction to the Envision: 1. Overview: On August 28, 2014, the Buick Envision, an SUV model under Shanghai GM, made its official debut on the eve of the Chengdu Auto Show. The Envision is equipped with a 2.0T engine paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. 2. Positioning: The Buick Envision is positioned as a midsize SUV with a relatively large body size and ample interior space. The car's exterior exudes a strong sense of power while maintaining a fashionable appeal, making it an ideal choice for young drivers. 3. Exterior: The 2019 Buick Envision features a newly designed intelligent drag-reducing grille, aluminum roof rails, newly styled chrome dual exhaust pipes, 19-inch multi-spoke aluminum alloy wheels, and multifunctional exterior rearview mirrors.

I’ve been driving the Envision for two years now, and what I enjoy most is listening to music while driving. In the infotainment screen, go to ‘Settings’ - ‘Sound’, and I usually set the equalizer to a U-shape: treble around 70%, midrange down to 50%, and bass up to 80%. This gives punchy drums without muddiness. If you prefer clearer vocals, just bump up the midrange. For BOSE audio, remember to enable CenterPoint virtual surround—it really widens the soundstage. Play the intro of ‘Hotel California’ and fine-tune the front/rear balance until the applause seems to come from the center of the dashboard. Bluetooth loses a lot of audio quality, so I recommend using CarPlay or a USB direct connection. On highways, set speed-compensated volume to medium—you’ll hear lyrics clearly even over wind noise.

Adjusting the Envision's audio system requires some finesse. First, choose your audio source - lossless formats are vastly superior to online music. In the sound settings, disable 'Automatic Volume' and manually adjust the equalizer: treble +2 notches to prevent harshness, midrange at default to emphasize vocals, bass +3 notches to enhance atmosphere. Use the intro of "The Ferry" for testing - the drum beats should sound deep but not muffled. Adjust the front/rear balance slightly toward the windshield direction for the driver's seat. A useful trick: temporarily switch to 'Voice Mode' during navigation announcements, then switch back to music for clearer sound. A car enthusiast who modified their audio system advised that the stock amplifier can't properly power aftermarket speakers, so it's best not to tamper with the wiring randomly.

How Many Years Can a New Car Be Driven?

Generally speaking, 15 years is a threshold. The current traffic laws have introduced new regulations regarding the service life of vehicles. For non-commercial vehicles that have been in use for more than 15 years, owners are required to undergo an annual inspection at the vehicle management office every six months. There are also regulations on mileage, stipulating that if a car's mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, it must be forcibly scrapped. New scrapping standards: 1. Non-commercial passenger vehicles: Non-commercial passenger vehicles with 9 seats or fewer (including 9 seats, such as sedans and off-road vehicles) have a service life of 15 years. If the vehicle is required to continue in use after reaching the scrapping standard, approval is needed. After passing inspection, the service life can be extended, with two annual inspections required each year. For vehicles over 20 years old, four annual inspections are required from the 21st year onwards. 2. Tourist passenger vehicles: Tourist passenger vehicles have a service life of 10 years. If continued use is required after reaching the scrapping standard, the current procedures must be followed, but the service life can be extended for a maximum of 10 years. Tourist passenger vehicles with extended service life require four annual inspections each year. 3. Commercial buses: The service life of commercial buses has been adjusted to 10 years. If continued use is required after reaching the scrapping standard, the current procedures must be followed. The extended service life cannot exceed 4 years, with four annual inspections required each year during the extended period.

Can the Buick GL8 still be driven when the oil life reaches 0?

Yes, but it is not recommended to continue driving. When the oil life shows 0, it is best to check whether it is caused by data errors such as not resetting after changing the oil or the oil not being used for a long time. Engine oil has a certain service life, and it is not recommended to drive when the oil life reaches 0. The vehicle computer only prompts the oil life based on the set mileage, which can be used as a reference. The vehicle computer only prompts the oil life based on the set mileage, which can be used as a reference. The following is an introduction to oil life: 1. Oil shelf life: Engine oil has a shelf life and cannot be used indefinitely. The shelf life of engine oil varies depending on its state. If the oil is unopened, its shelf life can be as long as five years; if it is the remaining oil after car maintenance, because it has been opened, the shelf life will be shortened, approximately one year; if it is the oil already poured into the engine for use, the shelf life is the shortest, about six months. 2. Whether the oil has deteriorated: While checking the car's oil, you can use an oil detection filter paper to test whether the oil has deteriorated. By dripping the oil onto the filter paper, three important ring-shaped areas can be obtained: the deposit ring, the diffusion ring, and the outer oil ring, which can sequentially indicate the degree of oil contamination, the dispersing ability of additives in the oil to contaminants, and the degree of oil oxidation.

Is It Safe to Sleep in a Car with the Air Conditioning On in Summer?

Sleeping in a car with the air conditioning on in summer is not safe. According to experimental data, in a closed car, running the air conditioning produces a large amount of carbon monoxide. In just over 20 minutes, the carbon monoxide concentration can exceed safe levels significantly, causing a noticeable sense of suffocation. Regardless of the type of car or whether the air circulation is set to internal or external, carbon monoxide can still enter the cabin. Precautions for using air conditioning: 1. Use external circulation after sun exposure: If the car has been exposed to the sun outdoors, first turn on the external circulation to ventilate and dissipate heat. Additionally, opening the windows and sunroof can speed up heat dissipation. After 3-5 minutes, when the interior temperature has stabilized, close the windows, turn on the cooling, and switch the air circulation to internal. 2. Use internal circulation in cold weather: In cold weather, wait a moment after getting in the car until the engine reaches normal operating temperature. Then, turning on the heater with internal circulation can quickly raise the temperature. 3. Use external circulation on highways: During high-speed driving, you can turn on the external circulation as needed. Prolonged use of internal circulation during long drives can lead to stale air inside the car, so switching to external circulation helps maintain a comfortable temperature while bringing in fresh air. However, if the air conditioning was initially turned on to cool the car, avoid keeping the external circulation on continuously. Instead, periodically switch to external circulation to refresh the air.

What is the optimal remaining battery level for charging new energy vehicles?

New energy vehicles have an optimal charging range between 20% and 90% battery level. Charging within this range can effectively minimize the impact on the power battery and significantly extend its service life. There are two main categories of new energy vehicles: 1. Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs): These vehicles use traditional fuels while being equipped with both an electric motor and an internal combustion engine to enhance low-speed power output and reduce fuel consumption. Based on whether they can be externally charged, they can be further classified into Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) and Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicles (MHEVs). 2. Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs): As the name suggests, these vehicles are primarily powered by electricity. Most BEVs directly use electric motors for propulsion, with some models mounting the motor in the engine compartment, while others integrate four motors directly into the wheels (using the wheels as rotors). The main challenge lies in electricity storage technology.
