How to Solve the Fuel Consumption Problem of the Excelle?
1 Answers
The solutions to the high fuel consumption of the Excelle are as follows: 1. Clean the engine carbon deposits. Excessive carbon deposits in the engine are a major cause, primarily due to the use of unsuitable fuel. It is recommended to add a certain amount of cleaning agent when refueling. If the effect is not noticeable, it indicates a significant amount of carbon deposits in the engine. In this case, the car must be taken to a 4S shop for professional technicians to clean the carbon deposits inside the engine. After cleaning, it is advisable to drive the car at high speed for a while, which helps increase exhaust flow and allows stronger airflow to remove larger carbon particles. 2. Check the oxygen sensor. As an internal control unit of the car, the oxygen sensor mainly monitors the fuel-air ratio in the engine. Once it is damaged, it will cause an imbalance in the fuel-air ratio, leading to a sudden increase in fuel consumption. When the oxygen sensor is damaged, the exhaust pipe will emit darker-colored exhaust gas during driving, and the oxygen sensor should be replaced at this time. 3. Regularly replace the three filters. During the use of the vehicle, the oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter must be replaced regularly. If they are not replaced for a long time, they will become dirty and send incorrect information to the engine control unit, resulting in incomplete fuel combustion and increased carbon deposits in the engine. 4. Check the electronic control unit. Although the engine's electronic control unit is highly reliable, in vehicles with longer service life, various faults are inevitable. For example, problems with the engine control unit will directly lead to difficulties in starting, increased fuel consumption, poor power performance, and thick black exhaust gas.
