The fuel tank capacity of the Cavalier is 36 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Cavalier can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Cavalier uses 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 4.8 to 4.9L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 735 to 750 kilometers. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel in the tank. This is usually observed through 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 there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During 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 safe limit, and there is still some space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space is designed to allow the fuel to expand when the temperature rises without overflowing the tank. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.

I drove the Cavalier recently, and its fuel tank is quite interesting in actual use. The official data says 41 liters, but when you actually fill it up, the pump stops at around 38 liters due to the safety reserve designed into the tank. On the highway, I calculated it to be about 6 liters per 100 kilometers, so a full tank easily gets you 600 kilometers. However, both the older models and automatic versions have the same tank size. If city traffic pushes consumption up to 8 liters per 100 kilometers, a full tank will last around 500 kilometers. Don’t overfill it when refueling—overfilling the vapor recovery tube can cause malfunctions. If you frequently take long trips, this tank size is adequate but not generous.

Why is the LANGDONG seat slightly tilted?

Check if the seat mounting bracket is loose and address the issue accordingly. Here are the solutions: 1. There are adjustment buttons beside the LANGDONG seat that the driver can use for adjustments. Setting the appropriate seat height is fundamental for obtaining a good driving view. When adjusting the seat, height adjustment should typically be the first step. Ensure there's at least a fist's distance between your head and the car roof to prevent head impact during bumps. 2. For adjusting the seat's fore-aft position, except for people with special height requirements, having the seat too far forward or backward is incorrect. A seat too forward reduces limb movement space. The correct approach is to ensure your right leg maintains a slight natural bend at the knee when fully depressing the brake pedal. During this process, you can also adjust the steering wheel to a suitable height. The adjustment principle is that when holding the 9 o'clock position, your arms should maintain a comfortable bent angle between 90 to 120 degrees.

Can the License Plate Be Retained When Transferring Vehicle Ownership?

The original owner of the vehicle can choose to retain the original license plate when transferring ownership. After the vehicle transfer, the original license plate can be applied for retention within two years. If not used within this period, the license plate number will be automatically revoked. If the original owner wishes to keep the license plate, they must promptly apply to the relevant authorities to use the plate on a newly purchased vehicle; otherwise, the plate will be forfeited. According to Article 52 of China's "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations": After completing the transfer or cancellation of motor vehicle registration, the original owner may apply to the vehicle management office to use the original license plate number when registering a newly purchased vehicle. To apply for the use of the original license plate number, the following conditions must be met: The application must be submitted within six months after the transfer or cancellation of registration. The original owner must have owned the vehicle for at least three years. All traffic violations and accidents involving the original vehicle must be resolved. Documents required for the original owner during a used car transfer include the registration certificate, vehicle license, and ID card. The buyer must provide an ID card, and if they are from another region, a residence permit or temporary residence certificate is also required. The vehicle transfer process begins with a vehicle evaluation. The evaluation fee is typically 1%-2% of the assessed vehicle value, with additional costs for license plates, vehicle licenses, etc. The original owner's commercial insurance can be canceled (compulsory insurance cannot be canceled) or transferred to the buyer through the insurance company. Important considerations when purchasing a used car: Incomplete documentation. Complete used car documentation includes the vehicle registration certificate (or original purchase invoice), vehicle license, vehicle purchase tax certificate, road maintenance fee records, and compulsory insurance. Missing documents or unpaid fees can cause significant issues for the buyer, so caution is advised if the seller cannot provide complete documentation. Odometer tampering. Many buyers rely on the odometer to judge a vehicle's condition, and sellers may manipulate it. The odometer not only indicates usage but also serves as a record for maintenance and part replacements. Relying on a tampered odometer for maintenance can pose safety risks. New paint hiding damage. If a used car has been repainted, especially around the front, rear, or A, B, and C pillars, it may have been involved in a major accident. Engine modifications to inflate price. Buyers often focus on the engine's condition, neglecting the rest of the vehicle. Sellers may replace engine parts to make the vehicle appear newer and justify a higher price.

How often should a new Mondeo be serviced?

A new Mondeo should undergo routine maintenance every 5,000 kilometers or every six months, which typically includes changing the engine oil, oil filter, and air filter. Engine oil serves four main functions: cooling, lubrication, cleaning, and sealing, all of which are crucial for ensuring the proper operation of the engine. Its primary roles are lubrication, cleaning, and heat dissipation. After prolonged driving, the oil filter and fuel filter accumulate a significant amount of impurities, leading to incomplete fuel combustion, reduced fuel efficiency, and increased fuel consumption. Therefore, regular replacement is recommended. The air filter also collects dust and bacteria, and if not replaced, the contaminated air circulating inside the vehicle can negatively affect human health.
