The 2020 Buick GL8 has a total of 13 models. Among them, the fuel tank capacity of the 653T series models is 70 liters, while the 652T series models have a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters. This data is officially released, and owners who have purchased the 2020 Buick GL8 can also check it on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The 2020 Buick GL8 requires 95-octane fuel. The 653T model has a fuel consumption of 7.9L per 100 kilometers, and a full tank can cover a distance of 886km. The 652T model has a fuel consumption of 7.8-7.9L per 100 kilometers, and a full tank can cover a distance of 835-846km. During daily driving, it is important to always monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. 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, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, with additional space from the safe fill level to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.

The 2020 Buick GL8 has a fuel tank capacity of 70 liters, which is quite useful for daily driving, especially for someone like me who often takes long trips. A full tank of 70 liters can easily cover over 700 kilometers, eliminating the hassle of frequent refueling. As a family MPV, the GL8's fuel tank design matches the vehicle's weight and powertrain system, with city fuel consumption around 10 liters per 100 kilometers, and even better on highways. Its range performance makes me feel that choosing it was the right decision. Additionally, the fuel filler location is well-placed, making refueling convenient without any hassle. If the tank were smaller, constantly looking for gas stations would be time-consuming and frustrating. The 70-liter capacity makes daily commutes and trips much more pleasant. It's advisable to check the fuel tank condition when purchasing to avoid leaks or rust issues that could affect safety.

What to Do When a Car Tire Is Punctured by a Nail but Doesn't Leak Air After Removal?

Tire punctured by a nail, after pulling it out, the air won't leak immediately. In this case, you should drive slowly to a repair shop for inspection and maintenance. Here is some relevant information about tires: Definition: Tire, commonly referred to as a car tire, is usually made of wear-resistant rubber material. There are solid tires and pneumatic tires, with pneumatic tires consisting of an inner tube and an outer tire. Generally, manufacturers set the service life of tires at 3 years. If a vehicle is driven 20,000 kilometers a year, replacement can be considered in 2~3 years. Tire Pressure Adjustment: Generally, car tire pressure should be checked at least once a month. Pay attention to adjusting tire pressure with each season change. The ideal adjustment times are in November and May. In November, as winter approaches, tire pressure usually decreases and should be slightly adjusted. In May, as the weather starts to get hot, it's advisable to check if the air pressure is normal. Special attention should be paid to not deliberately reduce tire pressure unless it is significantly above the standard range. If the tire isn't low on air, there's no need to adjust it every month.

What Causes Insufficient Cooling in Truck Air Conditioning?

Truck air conditioning may not cool sufficiently due to poor quality refrigerant, issues with the condenser and radiator, or substandard expansion valve quality. Below are detailed explanations of these causes: Poor quality refrigerant: The quality and purity of refrigerant play a crucial role in vehicle air conditioning systems. Typically, low-quality refrigerant results in inefficient air conditioning operation. Condenser and radiator issues: The heat dissipation performance of the condenser and radiator also affects air conditioning functionality. Prolonged lack of cleaning can lead to these components being covered with debris and dust. Expansion valve quality problems: The expansion valve is a critical component in the refrigeration system, usually installed between the liquid storage tank and the evaporator. Inferior expansion valves prevent the refrigerant from functioning as intended.

Should You Shift to Neutral When Waiting at a Red Light in an Automatic Transmission Car?

When briefly stopping at a red light in an automatic transmission car, it is not necessary to shift to neutral. However, for prolonged stops, shifting to neutral is recommended. Below is a detailed introduction to the gears in an automatic transmission car: R Gear is the Reverse Gear: Engaging this gear connects the hydraulic system to the reverse gear circuit, causing the drive wheels to rotate in reverse for backward movement. Never force the gear into "R" when the vehicle is not completely stopped, as this can damage the transmission. N Gear is the Neutral Gear: When shifted into neutral, the planetary gear system idles without transmitting power. D Gear is the Drive Gear: When the gear selector is in this position, the hydraulic control system automatically engages the appropriate forward gear circuit based on throttle opening and vehicle speed signals. It shifts gears automatically according to driving speed changes, enabling automatic transmission functionality. P Gear is the Parking Gear: This gear uses a mechanical device to lock the rotating parts of the car's tires, preventing the vehicle from moving.

What are the consequences of not changing the truck air filter for a long time?

Truck air filter not being replaced for a long time will cause weak acceleration and increased fuel consumption, clogged air conditioning filter, and internal engine damage. The following are specific explanations of the above consequences: Weak acceleration and increased fuel consumption: If the truck air filter is not replaced for a long time, it will clog the intake tract, affecting the engine's air intake, resulting in weak acceleration and increased fuel consumption. Clogged air conditioning filter: If the air conditioning filter is not replaced for a long time, it will also become clogged. Especially in summer, when the air conditioning is turned on, there may be little cold air coming out of the vents. Generally, it is recommended to replace the air conditioning filter once a year and the air filter every 20,000 kilometers. Internal engine wear: The air filter can block dust and road dirt from entering the engine. These hard particles will cause internal engine wear, scratching the cylinder surface, adhering to the surfaces of tightly fitted parts, and causing wear on exposed and lubricated components.

What Causes Gear Shifting Jerkiness?

Gear shifting jerkiness occurs due to a rotational speed difference between the engine and the clutch disc. When shifting gears and releasing the clutch, if the engine speed does not match the current vehicle speed—meaning there's a rotational speed difference between the engine and the clutch disc (in most cases, the engine speed is lower than the clutch disc speed)—jerking will occur. Solutions: Pay attention to the shifting RPM and speed up the shifting process. Lightly press the accelerator when upshifting to reduce jerkiness. Utilize the clutch's semi-engaged state effectively; during gear shifts, this helps ensure smoother power delivery and minimizes jerkiness. The standard gear-shifting sequence is progressive, i.e., 1-2-3-4-5. However, in certain situations, skip-shifting can also avoid jerkiness—for example, shifting directly from 2nd gear at 2000 rpm to 4th gear or from 3rd gear to 5th gear. This method relies on roughly matching the front-end torque output of the powertrain with the rear-end torque demand, often used during acceleration on highways or flat roads. If using the older two-step shifting method (first pressing the clutch to disengage, then pressing again to engage), the longer shifting time causes the engine RPM to drop excessively, leading to jerkiness. The one-step method (continuously pressing the clutch while disengaging and engaging gears) shortens the shifting time, reducing RPM drop and preventing jerkiness. However, prolonged semi-engagement accelerates wear on the clutch bearing and pressure plate, eventually causing clutch failure, so minimize its use. Excessive one-step shifting time also increases wear on these components, so shifting actions should be as quick as possible. Pressing the accelerator during shifting can easily cause engine over-revving, while not pressing it may lead to excessive RPM drop and jerkiness. For vehicles with slightly weaker low-RPM torque, lightly maintaining pressure on the accelerator during shifts prevents both over-revving and excessive RPM drop-induced jerkiness.

What is the best age to buy a used car?

It is recommended to purchase a used car that is 3-5 years old. Here are some suggestions for buying a used car: Purchasing a used car with less than 70,000 kilometers: In the market, you can easily find used cars manufactured after 2006, typically with mileage under 70,000 kilometers. These vehicles are generally in good condition and often come with well-maintained service records. After purchase, in addition to routine maintenance, it is advisable to focus on inspecting critical safety components such as the braking system, tires, and steering. Replace these parts if necessary. Purchasing a vehicle with over 150,000 kilometers: Generally, the refurbishment cost for such vehicles accounts for about 15%-20% of the purchase price. If the required investment is too high, it is better to consider other options.
