2013 Buick Excelle has a fuel tank capacity of 60 liters, which is the officially announced data. The 2013 Buick Excelle uses 92-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 6.6 to 7.6L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 789 to 909 kilometers. During daily driving, it is necessary to pay attention to the remaining fuel level at all times. Generally, the fuel level is observed through the fuel gauge in the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments. It is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. In actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit. There is still some space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which is reserved to allow the fuel to expand when the temperature rises without overflowing. If the fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.

I've been driving a 2013 Excelle for five years with a 60-liter fuel tank. It costs around 400 yuan to fill up with 92-octane gasoline each time. This capacity is considered large among cars in the same class. My daily commute is 30 kilometers, and a full tank can last nearly half a month. For refueling tips, it's recommended to fill up when the fuel gauge shows a quarter left to avoid overheating the fuel pump; don't insist on rounding up the amount after the pump automatically stops, as overfilling not only wastes fuel but may also damage the carbon canister system. The 60-liter tank is very convenient for long trips—last time I drove 600 kilometers back to my hometown without stopping at a gas station. A reminder: don't fill the tank too full in summer, as the thermal expansion of gasoline may cause it to overflow from the vent, wasting money.

What Causes Weak Ignition in Cars?

Weak car ignition can be attributed to the following reasons: 1. Pay attention to the battery: Most modern cars use maintenance-free batteries, which require regular checks on the power display: green indicates normal power, white means charging and maintenance are needed, and red indicates no power. The battery lifespan is generally about two years. If the battery power is found to be low, it should be replaced promptly. 2. Check the throttle valve body and idle valve: Carbon buildup can cause the throttle valve body and idle valve to stick, leading to difficult starts. For vehicles with an idle valve, lightly pressing the accelerator before starting can help, but releasing the pedal may cause the engine to stall immediately. It’s best to take the car to a repair shop for cleaning and inspection. 3. Fuel pressure: To ensure normal engine startup, the residual fuel pressure in the fuel system after the engine shuts off should not be below 2.5–3.5 kg/cm². Otherwise, insufficient pressure will prevent the injectors from delivering enough fuel for startup. 4. Lubricant quality: As winter approaches, it’s essential to replace various lubricants, including engine oil, transmission fluid, and power steering fluid. Regular lubricants thicken in winter, reducing fluidity and increasing friction resistance during component movement, making cold starts difficult. Opt for slightly lower-viscosity oil to reduce mechanical wear and protect the engine.

What does Hill Start Assist mean in a car?

Hill Start Assist is a function derived from the ESP system. It allows the vehicle to maintain braking for a few seconds after the driver's right foot leaves the brake pedal when starting on a slope without using the handbrake. This enables the driver to easily shift their foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal, preventing rollback accidents and avoiding panic. Below is an introduction to Hill Start Assist: 1. How to use Hill Start Assist: Do not press the accelerator pedal when the gear lever is not in the P position, and the vehicle must remain stationary. The driver should not engage the handbrake (foot brake or electronic brake). When these conditions are met, the Hill Start Assist system will activate as the driver moves their foot from the brake pedal. 2. Working principle: When the vehicle is on a slope, the HAC system automatically maintains brake fluid pressure for 2-3 seconds when the driver moves their foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal, preventing the vehicle from rolling back due to gravity and inertia. As the accelerator is pressed, the system gradually reduces braking force. Once HAC control ends, the vehicle moves forward steadily. If the accelerator is not pressed, HAC's automatic braking control will also end after 2-3 seconds.

Do you need to turn on the AC when using the car heater in winter?

In winter, you don't need to turn on the AC when using the car heater. Pressing the AC button activates the compressor, which provides cold air, while the heater does not require it. This is because the heater transfers some of the heat originally dissipated through the radiator into the cabin, so using cold air would counteract some of the engine's power, whereas the heater does not affect the engine's performance. Here's an introduction to the AC function: 1. The AC button is used to start the compressor, which pressurizes the refrigerant (Freon). To use the heater, you don't need to turn on the AC; simply adjust the fan speed to blow warm air. The warm air at this time utilizes the car's internal heat cycle, transferring heat from the radiator into the cabin without increasing fuel consumption. Note that the heater requires preheating; when the car is first started, the coolant temperature is low, so it takes some time for the blower to deliver warm air. 2. The AC is the cooling button, which requires the most work from the air conditioning system and consumes the most fuel. However, the heater does not require 'cooling' at all, as the car can fully utilize the heat generated by the engine to operate the heater.

How to Install a Front Car Camera?

Installation methods for a front car camera are detailed as follows: Front-view camera: You can add a front-view camera. If the DVD has dual video inputs, the front-view camera can be connected to one video input port separately, and the power can be controlled using the left and right turn signals. Video switching via a converter: If there is only one video input port, you can only add a converter switch to switch the video. The installation method for a front car camera is as follows: Generally, purchased front cameras come with an RCA interface, which can be connected to the TV port of the car navigation system. For a front camera, check if your car navigation system supports it. Some navigation systems do support front cameras and have dedicated input ports for them. Simply connect accordingly; if not supported and the interface doesn’t match, you’ll need to use alternative methods. Installation location: The camera can be installed below the front license plate frame or fixed to the frame using the two screws on the license plate. Some can also be installed on the right front side of the car to monitor the right blind spot. Others can be installed below the left or right rearview mirrors to monitor the front blind spots. Generally, front-view cameras installed in the middle can include reverse guide lines, while those installed elsewhere do not need these lines.

What are the symptoms of an intake pipe leak?

When there is a leak in the car's intake pipe, symptoms such as weak engine operation, increased nitrogen oxide emissions in the exhaust, and difficulty starting may occur. Since the engine requires a higher concentration of combustible gas mixture during the starting process, and an intake pipe leak causes the combustible gas mixture to become lean, it will lead to difficulty in starting the engine. Below is an introduction to the car's intake pipe: 1. Since the air sucked into the engine from the intake pipe crack does not pass through the air flow sensor, this part of the gas will make the combustible gas mixture in the engine cylinder lean, resulting in weak engine operation. Since nitrogen oxides in vehicle exhaust are generated under high-temperature and oxygen-rich conditions, an overly lean combustible gas mixture will further promote the generation of nitrogen oxides, thereby increasing the emission of vehicle exhaust pollutants. 2. Under normal circumstances, a leaking intake pipe can still be used, but it will suck external dust, sand, and other impurities into the cylinder, causing severe wear to the cylinder liner. The engine's intake system consists of an air filter, intake manifold, and air flow meter. Its main function is to provide the engine with clean, dry, sufficient, and stable air to meet the engine's needs, while preventing impurities and particulate dust in the air from entering the engine combustion chamber, which could cause engine wear.
