How to Read the Fuel Gauge on a Geely Car?

The dashboard of the Geely car is equipped with a fuel gauge, which displays the remaining fuel level after the car is started. The fuel gauge uses the letters E and F to indicate the fuel level, where E stands for insufficient fuel and F represents a full tank. The scale lines can also be used to check the amount of fuel. For example, if the fuel tank capacity is 50L, each scale line represents 10L, allowing you to estimate how much fuel is left.

I've been driving a Geely car for three or four years, and the gauge on the left side of the dashboard with the fuel pump icon is the fuel gauge. It moves when you start the car. When the needle points to E, it means you're almost out of fuel, and the F end represents a full tank. The most useful feature is the little oil can-shaped warning light—when it turns yellow, make sure to refuel immediately. Never wait until it flashes red, as it can damage the fuel pump and even lead to a breakdown. Once, my fuel gauge needle got stuck, and the mechanic said it was due to a stuck fuel tank float—just a few bumps fixed it. Driving in the city makes the gauge more accurate. Oh, and for Geely cars with full LCD instrument panels, the fuel level is displayed on the right side with an oil drop icon and a percentage.

Attention to new Geely owners: Look at the circular area behind the steering wheel. On the left instrument panel, there's a slender needle marking the E and F scales - head to the gas station immediately when the needle approaches the E line. Newer models like the Boyue L feature digital instrument clusters that display fuel level as a percentage; locate the small yellow fuel tank icon at the bottom. It's recommended to refuel when the gauge drops to one-quarter, especially in summer when gasoline helps cool the fuel pump. Last time my gauge showed two bars remaining when the yellow warning light suddenly flashed - dealership inspection revealed poor contact in the fuel level sensor. Remember: maximum 30km after the warning light appears!

Driving my Emgrand, I often forget the fuel gauge position? Here's how to check: After starting the car, glance at the left instrument cluster with the fuel pump symbol – if the needle hits the red E zone, refuel immediately. Slight needle movement when using AC or climbing hills is normal, but erratic readings on level ground may indicate a faulty sensor. Once I parked on a slope with 1/4 tank, and next morning it showed half full – leveled out when moved to flat ground. Refuel when below 3 bars; never gamble with the yellow warning light – my friend learned this the hard way pushing her car. New models even allow setting low-fuel alerts on the infotainment screen!

What do T and L mean in cars?

In cars, the meanings of T and L are as follows: T stands for turbo, which means turbocharging. L stands for liter, indicating the engine displacement in liters. Engines labeled with L without a T are generally naturally aspirated engines. Below are the differences between the two types of engine intake methods: 1. Naturally aspirated is a type of engine intake where air is drawn into the combustion chamber by atmospheric pressure without any supercharger. Naturally aspirated engines offer smoother power output and more direct response compared to turbocharged engines. 2. Turbocharging is a technology that uses exhaust gases from internal combustion engines to drive an air compressor. The main purpose of turbocharging is to increase the engine's air intake, thereby enhancing the engine's power and torque, making the car more powerful. When a turbocharger is installed on an engine, its maximum power can increase by 40% or more compared to when it is not equipped with a turbocharger.

What is the difference between 92V and 96V tires?

The differences between 92V and 96V tires are as follows: The load index of the tires is different, with 94V capable of carrying a maximum load of 670kg and 92V capable of carrying a maximum load of 630kg. More information about tires is as follows: Tires are important components of a car, and there are more than 10 types of markings on car tires. Correctly identifying these markings is crucial for the selection, use, and maintenance of tires, and it is significant for ensuring driving safety and extending the service life of tires. 1. Tire specifications: Specifications are the marked data of the geometric parameters and physical performance of tires. There are three methods to represent tire specifications: A. Metric (m); B. Mixed metric and imperial; C. Imperial; Imperial tire specifications are commonly represented by a set of numbers, where the first number indicates the tire section width, and the second number indicates the rim diameter, both in inches. The letters or symbols in between have special meanings. 2. Tire structure: "R" represents radial tires, while "D" and "-" represent bias tires. 3. Others: "XL" indicates tires with locally reinforced texture, "TG" indicates tires for engineering tractors and graders (off-road use), and "NHS" indicates tires for non-highway use.

The 4S shop did not change the engine oil during the first maintenance

4S shop first maintenance has the engine oil change project. Normally, the first maintenance mileage is 5000 kilometers or three months from the date of purchase, not only is there a free maintenance offer, including engine oil change, oil filter materials and labor costs, but also a full vehicle inspection. If the 4S shop did not change the engine oil during the first maintenance, it is likely because the car mileage has not yet reached the range of the first maintenance. Methods to check whether the 4S shop has changed the engine oil: The most direct method is to observe the color of the engine oil. The steps are as follows: 1. First, find the handle of the oil dipstick in the engine compartment, 2. Then prepare a piece of tissue paper. 3. Pull out the oil dipstick and drip the oil onto the tissue paper, then observe the color directly. 4. If the color appears brown and transparent, it means the 4S shop has changed the engine oil for the car. But if the color appears black, or even mixed with some impurities, it indicates that the 4S shop did not change the engine oil for the car.

Why are the production dates of the new car's windows different?

It is normal for the production dates of car windows to be different. The vehicle assembly plant is an assembly factory, and parts suppliers deliver goods to its warehouse in advance. It is impossible to ensure that every part is assembled immediately, and sometimes it is normal to have some extra parts prepared in advance, so the timing may not be synchronized. The glass production is a continuous assembly line that basically cannot be stopped, and different batches of glass will have different production dates. Installing glass with different production dates on the same car does not indicate any other issues with the vehicle. Since car windows cannot be perfectly identical, this has no direct relation to whether the car itself has any problems. If there are quality issues with the glass, such as cracking, the inconsistent production dates can serve as valid evidence of glass quality. However, this does not prove any issues with the car itself, and the vehicle warranty is based on the vehicle's sales date. Generally, the vehicle production date is indicated on the nameplate of the front passenger door.
