How to Open the Fuel Tank Cap on the Enclave?
2 Answers
The method to open the fuel tank cap on the Enclave: manually press the sensor area of the fuel tank cap, which is either the middle part or the head of the cap. A single press will cause the cap to pop open. The Enclave is developed based on GM's small crossover vehicle platform, featuring a coupe-style design rarely seen in SUVs and excellent dynamic performance for a compact SUV. It is equipped with GM's eighth-generation Ecotec engine, paired with a 9-speed HYDRA-MATIC intelligent transmission and a CVT continuously variable transmission, meeting the China 6 emission standards. In terms of dimensions, the Enclave measures 4295mm in length, 1798mm in width, and 1616mm in height.
I've been driving the Encore for two years, and opening the fuel tank cap is not as simple as it seems. You need to have the vehicle unlocked (by pressing the remote key or the door handle button), walk to the fuel tank cap, and press directly on the right side. You'll hear a click, and it will pop open. Remember to park the car stably and turn off the engine, and don't take the car key too far away, or it won't sense it and won't open. There's a small plastic strap on the back of the fuel tank cap connected to the car body, which is quite thoughtful as it prevents loss. When closing the cap, just align it with the slot and press it back; no need to use too much force, or the hinge might break. During regular car washes, remember to wipe the gaps around the cap to prevent sand and stones from jamming the latch.
