I've been driving a Buick Excelle for a year now, and I always check the tire pressure before driving to avoid any issues. After starting the car, I sit in the driver's seat and press the small round button on the left side of the steering wheel a few times. The dashboard screen then switches to display the tire pressure numbers for each tire—front wheels on the left and rear wheels on the right, making it easy to see. If the value is too low, say below 2.0 bar, I immediately go to the repair shop to inflate the tires or try swapping their positions. Otherwise, uneven tire pressure can affect fuel consumption and tire lifespan. I believe regular checks help identify potential problems early. For example, I always check once before long trips—it's simple, convenient, and safe. Don’t wait until the warning light comes on to panic; by then, it might be too late. New drivers can get used to it in just a few days—it’s not difficult at all.

As a seasoned driver with over a decade of experience, I place great importance on tire pressure checks as it directly impacts driving safety. On the Buick Excelle, checking tire pressure is straightforward: first, start the engine, then navigate to the option menu on the central dashboard screen using either your finger or the steering wheel buttons. Scroll to find the tire pressure prompt and select it to view the specific readings for all four tires. Normal tire pressure typically ranges between 2.2 and 2.5. If the pressure is too low, it increases the risk of a blowout and reduces fuel efficiency; if it's too high, the ride becomes uncomfortably bumpy. I recommend checking the tire pressure every two weeks, taking just a minute or two each time. Keeping a portable car air pump on hand for emergencies is also a smart move. Remember, safety comes first—don’t cut corners. Developing this habit can save you significant repair costs. For instance, last year alone, I avoided two potential blowouts thanks to regular checks.

I think the tire pressure system of the Buick Excelle is pretty cool, like a smart little assistant. After starting the vehicle, simply operate the control lever on the right side of the steering wheel or the button on the center console to bring up the tire pressure display menu. It usually lights up in the right area of the dashboard, showing real-time digital updates of the tire pressure data clearly and effortlessly. I often use it to monitor the values. If it shows a low reading, like 1.8 bar, I go to the garage to check for leaks or faulty sensors. Regular maintenance can extend tire life and improve handling. For car enthusiasts who like modifications, this feature is very practical—no need to wait for an alarm to take action.

Do I still need to shift to N gear with autohold?

When autohold is engaged, it is equivalent to pulling the handbrake while in D gear. As for whether to shift back to N gear, it depends on the vibration of the car. The function of autohold: Autohold is equivalent to an automatic handbrake. When the brake is pressed, the electronic handbrake will automatically engage. It works particularly well with auto start-stop because when the brake is fully pressed, both autohold and auto start-stop come into effect, and the engine is in a shutdown state, so there's no need to consider gear issues at all. If the car does not have an auto start-stop function, autohold being engaged is equivalent to pulling the handbrake while in D gear. As for whether to shift back to N gear, it depends on the vibration of the car, as the driving force is still competing with the handbrake. For cars with significant vibration, it may be better to shift back to N gear. When to shift back to N gear: For situations like waiting at a red light, there is no need to change gears at all. However, when parked on the roadside for a long time, remember not to keep the car in D gear.

Why was I deducted 100 points for rough gear shifting?

Subject 3 failed due to rough gear shifting because the clutch was not fully depressed during gear changes. Reasons for rough gear shifting: The clutch was not fully depressed during gear changes. Additionally, gear shifting must be done sequentially and match the vehicle speed. During gear changes, the clutch must be fully depressed, and neither the accelerator nor the brake should be pressed. Subject 3 primarily tests the coordination between the accelerator and clutch during gear changes. Gear shifting techniques: Ensure sufficient throttle is applied, and after each gear shift, proceed decisively to the next shift. Gear shifting actions, including hand and foot movements, should be fast, precise, and coordinated. Keep the left foot on the clutch and the right hand on the gear lever. After starting, accelerate and shift up to 5th gear by the 50-meter mark, then begin braking and downshift to 2nd gear, leaving some distance margin. Throughout the process, use the left hand to maintain proper steering control to avoid deviation.

Causes and Solutions for Odors in Car Air Conditioning Systems

Here are the reasons why air conditioning systems may produce odors: 1. Prolonged use of the air conditioner can lead to the accumulation of dust on the indoor filter and inside the copper coils. When a certain amount of dust builds up, it can generate an odor, which is then dispersed into the air when the air conditioner is turned on. 2. After cooling or heating, the indoor unit of the air conditioner often retains moisture. If the air conditioner is turned off immediately without a drying or anti-mold function, the moisture remains inside, leading to the growth of mold over time, which produces a musty smell. Here are some methods to eliminate odors: 1. If the air conditioner has been used for a short period and only has dust on the panel and vents, simply wipe it down and remove the filter for rinsing with clean water. 2. If the air conditioner has been used for a long time and the user cannot perform a simple cleaning, it is necessary to contact after-sales service for a thorough cleaning to ensure the air conditioner emits healthier and fresher air.

What does it mean to replace spark plugs one by one?

Replacing spark plugs is actually part of routine maintenance, just like changing engine oil and the three filters. A set of spark plugs usually consists of four, and it is generally recommended to replace all four together rather than one by one. Reasons for replacing spark plugs: Regular maintenance parts for cars have a specific cycle. The replacement cycle for spark plugs typically ranges from 20,000 to 100,000 kilometers (depending on the material). However, this doesn't mean they become unusable immediately after reaching the manufacturer's specified limit. Most products are designed with a safety margin, so exceeding the cycle won't immediately cause fatal damage to the engine. However, after surpassing the recommended mileage, electrode wear accelerates, the electrode gap widens, and unstable ignition requires higher voltage. Mild symptoms include sluggish acceleration, misfires, and increased fuel consumption. In severe cases, electrode breakage may occur, potentially damaging the engine. Methods for replacing spark plugs: Mechanics usually replace all spark plugs at once. Theoretically, even if you replace one with the same brand and model, the discharge gap and resistance between new and old spark plugs differ. Not replacing all of them can lead to issues like engine shaking, difficulty in acceleration, and increased fuel consumption. This means that differences in spark plugs can cause variations in ignition timing and energy, resulting in an imbalance in power among the four cylinders.

How to Determine the Position of the Left and Right Tires of a Car

To determine the position of the left tire, observe the position of the wiper node and the centerline of the ground. When the driver sees the wiper node coincide with the centerline, it indicates that the left tire will pass over it. Accurately judging the trajectory of the left tire can help avoid potholes and stones on the road. To determine the position of the right tire, when the driver's line of sight intersects with the node of the right wiper and the target line, it means the tire will pass over the target line. Here are methods to determine the position of the left and right tires while driving: 1. Technique for keeping the car body 60 cm from the centerline: When the driver's line of sight aligns the intersection of the dashboard and the A-pillar with the road's centerline, it indicates the car body is exactly 60 cm from the centerline. 2. Technique for keeping the right side 60 cm from the roadside: When the driver's line of sight from the right washer nozzle overlaps with the roadside target, it means the car body is 60 cm from the roadside. 3. Technique for judging the distance to the car ahead: When the driver sees the upper edge of the front car's bumper from the lower edge of the windshield, it indicates a distance of only one meter to the front car, requiring the driver to maintain proper spacing.
