The jerking sensation when shifting from 1st to 2nd gear in an automatic transmission is caused by unsmooth gear shifting. Before upshifting, slightly release the accelerator pedal, wait for the transmission to complete the upshift automatically, and then accelerate gently. Here are some precautions for driving an automatic transmission vehicle: 1. Gear shifting: Automatic transmission vehicles have protection and interlock mechanisms for gear shifting. Accidentally shifting from D to R or P gear while driving can be dangerous, but you can freely switch between D and N gears, even while driving. 2. Avoid coasting in neutral: Coasting in neutral does not save fuel in automatic transmission vehicles. Prolonged coasting in neutral can lead to insufficient oil pressure in the hydraulic lines of the automatic transmission, increasing friction, reducing lubrication effectiveness, and damaging the friction plates inside the transmission.

What type of tires does the Outlander use?

This vehicle uses tires of a single size specification across all models, which is 225/55-R18. Below are relevant details about the tires: 1. Tires are the only components of a car that come into contact with the ground, and they are crucial for the vehicle's driving stability and safety. Being rubber products, tires are prone to aging over time, hence they require regular replacement. During routine use, it's essential to replace tires on schedule. Generally, cars need their tires replaced every four years. 2. When purchasing tires, always check the production date carefully. Many may not be aware, but tires have a shelf life. Typically, unused tires have a shelf life of three years. If you find that the tires have been in storage for more than three years at the time of purchase, it's advisable not to proceed with the purchase.

What Causes the Engine Yellow Light on the Tachometer to Illuminate?

There are two main reasons why the engine yellow light on the tachometer illuminates, with the primary reason being vehicle self-inspection. Below are the relevant explanations: 1. Vehicle Self-Inspection: When the car's power is turned on, the vehicle undergoes a self-inspection. During this time, not only the engine yellow light but also other fault lights will illuminate simultaneously before turning off together. 2. Engine Fault: If the engine's yellow fault light remains illuminated after the car is started, it indicates that the ECU is alerting to an engine fault. For instance, sensors such as those for water temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake temperature, and oxygen sensors, when damaged, have poor contact, or experience signal interruption, the car's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, leading to the illumination of the engine fault light.

How many liters of fuel are needed to fill up the Envision?

Buick Envision's fuel tank has a standard capacity of 65 liters. Here is some relevant information about the fuel tank: 1. The car fuel tank is a container used to store fuel. It must have sufficient volume; otherwise, fuel-powered cars might end up needing to refuel as frequently as electric vehicles, potentially once a day. Therefore, the higher the fuel consumption of a car, the larger its fuel tank tends to be. 2. It's important to note that the car fuel tank requires regular maintenance. Periodically clean out accumulated water and dirt inside the tank using hot water, then dry it with compressed air. Regularly check that the tank's vent is unobstructed and inspect the filter screen frequently to prevent impurities from entering the tank during refueling.
