5 liters of engine oil is sufficient for the Envision 28T. Details are as follows: 1. Powertrain: The Buick Envision Plus is equipped with the 8th-generation Ecotec 2.0T variable cylinder turbocharged engine and a 9-speed HYDRA-MATIC transmission. The 48V mild hybrid system delivers a maximum engine power of 237 horsepower. 2. Exterior Design: (1) Vehicle Design: The Envision Plus adopts Buick's new family-style design language. Compared to models like the Enclave and Encore, the Envision Plus features a silver chrome trim connecting the IOO shield-shaped front grille and LED headlights. The side profile is more traditional, with strong character lines creating rich light effects that enhance the vehicle's luxurious ambiance. (2) Rear Design: The Buick Envision's boat-tail style also leaves a deep impression. The continuous silver chrome trim connects with the rear taillights, echoing the front design. The exhaust pipes on both sides of the bumper are surrounded by wide silver chrome, highlighting luxury while adding a sense of solidity. (3) Cockpit Design: The center console retains Buick's iconic wraparound integrated cockpit design. The 10-inch central control screen inside the cabin is tilted toward the driver, offering high touch sensitivity and screen clarity, improving operational convenience and allowing the driver to focus on the driving process.

I've been driving my Envision 28T for almost three years now, and I always make sure to supervise the oil changes. The owner's manual for this 2.0T engine specifies 5.7 liters of oil, including the amount for the filter replacement. At first, I thought 5 liters would be enough, but after checking the dipstick when the engine was cold, I noticed the oil level was halfway down. Since then, I've been asking the mechanic to add around 5.5 liters during each service and then monitor the level after driving a few hundred kilometers. Remember not to overfill it—exceeding the upper limit can damage the catalytic converter. American cars are known for consuming oil, and my friend's XT5 has the same issue. It's best to prepare a 6-liter container of oil and save the leftover for next time. Get into the habit of checking the dipstick every month, especially before long trips—this car has a bit of a reputation for burning oil.

What is the name of the tire inflation nozzle?

The nozzle used for inflating tires is called a tire valve. Additional information is as follows: Tire valve: The tire valve consists of three main parts: the valve body, the valve core, and the valve cap. It serves as a one-way valve (check valve) for inflating or deflating tires with gas or liquid, while maintaining and monitoring internal pressure. For tubed tires, it is installed on the inner tube, while for tubeless tires, it is mounted on the rim. Structurally, it can be divided into two types: rubber-metal valves and metal valves with rubber pads. The former is used for inner tubes of car tires, while the latter is mainly used for inner tubes of truck tires. The internal structure of tubeless tire valves is the same as that of ordinary valves.

What Causes the Reversing Screen to Go Black?

There are two scenarios for a black reversing screen: 1. Completely black screen and no power-on: Check if the car's original fuse has blown. If the fuse is blown, replace it. Check if the navigation buttons are stuck, including the RSET button, as stuck buttons can also prevent the device from powering on. Additionally, if you're skilled, you can remove the navigation unit and check if the tail fuse of the navigation system has blown. If it has, replace it. If the screen remains black and doesn't power on, use a multimeter to measure whether the B+ and ACC voltages are normal (12V). If the voltage is normal, then the issue lies within the device and requires internal repair. 2. Black screen but sound is normal: Switch to a familiar interface and tap the touchscreen to see if it responds. If the touch function works normally, focus on the display screen. Check if the LCD screen is damaged, whether the LCD backlight driver is functioning, if the signal circuit is normal, if the display decoding is working, and if the core module is operational. If the touch function is abnormal, first suspect a damaged touchscreen and replace it if necessary. Then inspect the touch circuit to confirm there are no issues with the wiring. Generally, the problem could be that the decoding chip or core module is not working or is damaged.

What does total loss replacement mean in a 4S store?

The traffic police will investigate the scene and issue an accident liability determination. If both parties have no objection to the division of liability, it will be executed accordingly. For compulsory traffic insurance, both parties will bear the compensation according to the proportion of the accident liability division.

Can You Buy a 4S Test Drive Car?

You cannot buy it. Every 4S store is basically equipped with test drive cars, especially for some popular models where manufacturers directly require 4S stores to provide test drive services. After these test drive cars are retired, they can be pushed into the market. Although the cars are relatively new with short mileage, they have already been registered and driven on the road, hence called new second-hand cars. More details about test drive cars are as follows: 1. Test Drive Cars: These are provided to allow customers to experience the driving and power feel of the vehicle more realistically, to enhance their desire to purchase, simulate the feeling of becoming an owner, and increase the probability of closing a deal. Test drive cars can drive normally on the road, indicating they have been registered and are second-hand cars, possibly with shorter mileage. Most manufacturers have strict management regulations for test drive cars, which can only be used for customer test drive services. Generally, the retirement or replacement cycle for test drive cars is one year, with most mileage between 3,000-5,000 kilometers. 2. Retired Test Drive Cars: These are cars with relatively short mileage and well-maintained condition. Of course, some test drive cars may have been involved in accidents, which requires on-site inspection.
