2 Answers
The method to check the tire pressure monitoring on the Buick Excelle is: 1. Press the menu button to switch to the vehicle information menu; 2. Rotate the knob at the top of the left lever to the tire pressure monitoring information to see the tire pressure of all four wheels. The Buick Excelle is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of 4609mm in length, 1798mm in width, and 1486mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2640mm and a fuel tank capacity of 44 liters. The Excelle is equipped with a 1.3T turbocharged engine and a 6-speed automatic manual transmission, delivering a maximum power of 120 kW and a maximum torque of 230 Nm. It features front-wheel drive, with a front suspension using a MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension using a multi-link independent suspension.
When driving my Buick Excelle, I always make it a habit to check the tire pressure monitoring system first. The most convenient way is to view it directly on the dashboard. After starting the vehicle, there's a small tire-shaped indicator light at the bottom left of the dashboard. If the light is off, it means the tire pressure is normal. To check specific values, use the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel to toggle through the information screens until you find the tire pressure display, which typically shows the pressure values for all four tires. It's most accurate to check when the car is cold. Around 2.3 bar for the front tires and 2.4 bar for the rear tires are considered acceptable. If the pressure drops below 2.0 bar, the warning light will illuminate. It's advisable to perform a quick check at least once a month and always before highway driving—don't be careless. If the light comes on, pull over and manually verify with a tire pressure gauge before continuing at high speeds—safety first. Incorrect tire pressure can easily lead to blowouts or damage to the wheel rims. This small maintenance task can save you big money in the long run.
