Method to reset the maintenance reminder on the Excelle: 1. Turn off the ignition switch and press the TRIP button; 2. Turn on the ignition switch and release the TRIP button; 3. When the maintenance reset prompt appears, press and hold the ENTER button for 3 to 5 seconds; 4. After hearing a beep, confirm completion and turn off the ignition switch. The Excelle is a premium mid-size car launched by SAIC-GM, featuring a family-style winged chrome grille that gives the front fascia a sharper and more rugged appearance. The combination of black piano vertical grille and high-gloss chrome winged grille naturally draws the visual focus of the front end to the emblem, while the winged grille extends horizontally to the headlights on both sides, enhancing the horizontal visual effect and overall cohesion of the front end.

When I first switched to the Excelle, I also had trouble with the maintenance reminder. Turn the ignition key to the ON position but don't start the engine. Press the button on the left side of the steering wheel a few times to enter the menu, find the maintenance option in the vehicle settings, and select reset. Don't rush to drive—make sure the dashboard light goes off before starting. Usually, this reminder is to prompt you to change the oil or check the car. It's recommended to service it at least every 5,000 kilometers to avoid major issues. Cars need careful attention. Regular visits to the 4S shop don't cost too much—safety comes first. Don't just focus on clearing the reminder and neglect the car's health.

How to Distinguish Between Stock Cars and New Cars?

Distinguishing between stock cars and new cars can be done by checking the car chassis and other methods to identify if it's a stock car. Here are the differences between the two: 1. Production date: On the car's front windshield, there is usually a production date for the glass. Based on this date, you can determine approximately when the glass was produced and whether it has been replaced. The time difference between vehicle production and glass production should not be too large. 2. Vehicle production nameplate: Every car is affixed with a nameplate before leaving the factory, which includes information such as the vehicle model and, most importantly, the manufacturing date of the vehicle. This is the easiest place to check the vehicle's production time.

What are the reasons why a car cannot shift gears?

The reasons why a car cannot shift gears include: 1. No fuel: The fuel gauge shows below the red line, making it impossible to start; 2. Dead battery: This could be due to a drained battery from leaving headlights on for too long or the battery reaching the end of its lifespan. It is generally recommended to replace the battery every 2 years; 3. Incorrect gear position: For automatic transmission cars, the gear must be in P (Park) or N (Neutral) to start. If it is in R (Reverse) or D (Drive), the car will not start. Some manual transmission cars may also fail to start if the clutch is not depressed; 4. Fuel quality issues: Presence of water or mud in the fuel tank. When refueling outdoors, you can use a gauze to cover the fuel nozzle to filter out impurities; 5. Lack of antifreeze: Water or low-quality antifreeze in the car can cause the entire cooling system to freeze in extremely cold winter conditions, leading to a cracked engine and malfunctioning water pump.
