Pinch the clips on the filter cover with both hands to remove the cover, take out the old filter, and replace it with a new one. The New Santana is a car launched by Shanghai Volkswagen, featuring a family-style front grille similar to models like the New Lavida.

Why does the car shake when running?

The following are the reasons why the car shakes when running: 1. Excessive carbon deposits in the fuel injector and throttle valve. During cold starts, the carbon deposits inside the engine absorb some gasoline, causing the combustible mixture to become too lean, leading to difficult starts or engine shaking. 2. Faults caused by car tires. It is necessary to check the tire pressure, tire wear, shock absorbers, and other components. 3. Shaking caused by abnormalities in the car's fuel supply system and ignition system. It is necessary to check whether the intake pressure sensor, fuel supply pressure, spark plug ignition, etc., are normal. 4. Problems with the car's body components. It is necessary to check whether the engine mounts, rubber ball joint covers, and parts securing the engine are loose or aged and damaged.

How to open the trunk of a GL8?

First, unlock the car with the key, then press the soft, silicone-like material located under the Buick logo above the license plate to open the trunk. Here is some related information: 1. The Buick GL8 has long been the leader in the domestic MPV market. With the launch of the all-new Buick GL8, the first-generation Buick GL8, commonly known as the "Landcruiser Noodle," has been discontinued. However, to capture more of the family MPV market, Buick introduced a new Buick GL8 Business Travel version based on the second-generation GL8, targeting the MPV market priced at over 200,000 yuan. 2. The new Buick GL8 Business Travel retains the overall design of the second-generation Buick GL8, but the most significant change is the front grille, which has been updated from the original waterfall-style to Buick's latest wing-shaped design. This maintains the vehicle's original business appeal while adding a more dynamic touch, making it more attractive to a broader range of customers.

A puff of blue smoke during cold start?

When blue smoke appears during a cold start, the first reaction is that the car has an engine oil burning issue. Apart from the problem of burning engine oil, blue smoke during a cold start may also be caused by the following reasons: 1. Aging, damage, or wear of the valve stem seals, excessive clearance between the valve and guide. 2. Blockage in the air filter or intake system causing poor airflow, overly rich air-fuel mixture, leading to excessive oil being drawn into the combustion chamber and burned. 3. Long-term incorrect driving habits or prolonged overloading, causing premature engine aging and wear. 4. Use of substandard engine oil or failure to change the oil for an extended period. The reason is that the oil becomes too thin, leading to incomplete combustion.

What is a sway bar?

Sway bar refers to the lateral stabilizer bar of a car, also known as an anti-roll bar. Here is more information about sway bars: 1. The sway bar is an auxiliary component in a car's suspension system. The anti-roll resistance of the sway bar and springs complement each other, influenced by the vehicle's weight distribution and other external forces. 2. If the front and rear anti-roll resistance of a car is unbalanced, it will affect the weight transfer and handling balance of the vehicle. If the rear wheels have greater anti-roll resistance, it can cause oversteering; if the front wheels have greater anti-roll resistance, it can lead to understeering. The sway bar helps solve these issues, achieving balanced vehicle handling, limiting body roll, and improving tire grip. 3. The material selection for sway bars has specific requirements—it should not be too soft or too hard. If the material is too soft, excessive camber can occur during turns, reducing the contact area between the tires and the ground. If the material is too stiff, it can prevent the tires from gripping the ground properly, significantly reducing the car's handling performance. 4. Modifying sway bars should be targeted. Different car models have different steering characteristics, and the combination of front and rear sway bars can be adjusted to compensate accordingly. Additionally, the vehicle's suspension system can be recalibrated or modified based on personal preferences.
