I'm the kind of person who loves maintaining my own car. I've been driving a Buick Envision for five years, and every time I change the oil, I opt for 5W-30 full synthetic, which is specifically Dexos1 certified. This oil ensures smooth engine starts, prevents stuttering in cold winters, and safeguards against oil burning during long-distance drives in high temperatures. I recommend checking the owner's manual to confirm the exact viscosity—most Envisions require this standard. Don’t skimp and use cheap oil, as it can lead to engine wear or increased noise. Change the oil roughly every 8,000 kilometers, and replace the oil filter at the same time to keep things clean. Stick to reputable brands like Mobil or Shell, ensuring authenticity, and avoid mixing old oil or different grades. Remember, timely maintenance keeps your engine durable and saves you from costly repairs.

Press the Clutch First or Release the Throttle First?

Release the throttle first. Pressing the clutch without releasing the throttle can cause the clutch to disengage at high RPMs, which may burn the clutch plates over time. The standard procedure for both upshifting and downshifting is: release the throttle, press the clutch, shift gears, slowly release the clutch while gently applying throttle. It's important to note that your foot must completely disengage from the throttle pedal; otherwise, you're still accelerating. The clutch in a car serves to disconnect or connect the engine's power to the wheels. When the driver presses the clutch pedal, the engine's transmission disconnects from the wheels, preventing engine power from reaching them. If the throttle isn't released after pressing the clutch, the engine continues to work uselessly and may potentially damage the clutch release bearing.

Is the MG 6 a domestic or joint-venture car?

MG 6 is a domestic car. Additional information: Differences between domestic and joint-venture cars: 1. Vehicle models: Domestic cars, leveraging local advantages, better understand consumer needs, thus offering greater advantages in terms of space, configuration, and pricing, with higher cost performance. However, in the luxury car segment, domestic cars still lag behind joint-venture brands. 2. The three major components (engine, transmission, and chassis): China's automotive industry started relatively late, and there are still many shortcomings in core technologies. Many car manufacturers still have to rely on imports for these components. 3. Materials: Domestic cars offer the most generous use of materials in their price range, with significantly more leather and soft materials used compared to joint-venture brands, resulting in a better visual appeal.

Is the BMW X1 built on the UKL platform?

BMW X1 is built on the UKL platform, which is BMW's transverse front-wheel-drive platform that can adjust body proportions as needed to meet the requirements of various models. The UKL platform not only includes MINI models but currently also encompasses the BMW 1 Series, 2 Series Tourer, X1, and others. Like the CLAR rear-wheel-drive platform, it is also compatible with more new energy vehicle models. The BMW X1 is a mid-cycle facelift model introduced by BMW. From the front, it closely resembles the mid-cycle facelift of the X3, but the lines behind the fenders feature unique designs. Combined with more angular rear lines, this gives the X1 a certain off-road capability. The more compact body is also a key hallmark of the X1.
