If the Excelle car experiences jerking, you can first check whether the transmission has water ingress. If so, replacing the oil may resolve the issue. To address the jerking sensation, it is necessary to clean the throttle valve carbon deposits, inspect the fuel injectors for blockages, and check the spark plugs. Below is a partial introduction regarding the jerking sensation in cars: 1. Special circumstances: Check whether the ignition system has water ingress. Sensors or water ingress in the intake system may cause the air filter to become wet, thereby affecting the air intake volume, with a small amount of water entering the intake. 2. Causes: The transmission oil circuit may be stuck or not flowing smoothly. Wear on the oil circuit plate, long-term lack of transmission oil changes leading to deterioration and reduced lubrication effectiveness, excessively dirty transmission filter affecting filtration performance, allowing worn particles to enter the valve body.

My car is a Buick Excelle, and last year I experienced jerky starts that felt like riding a horse. After checking with several repair shops, I found that the main causes were deteriorated transmission fluid and worn valve body. This car uses a GM 6AT transmission, and over time, the accumulated impurities in the old fluid caused unstable oil pressure, leading to jerky gear shifts. I also discovered that the torque converter clutch was slipping, resulting in inconsistent power delivery during acceleration. During the repair, I replaced the transmission fluid with full synthetic oil and cleaned the valve body, which immediately reduced the jerking by 80%. I recommend checking the fluid condition every 40,000 km—don’t wait until the filter is clogged, as that would require a major transmission disassembly. By the way, frequent short-distance driving can also cause the transmission fluid to overheat and degrade faster. I’ve since made it a habit to take a weekly highway drive, and the situation has improved significantly.

Does Having Water on Car Mats Affect the Car Interior?

Actually, having water on car mats does not pose significant harm. More details are as follows: 1. Definition: The 360 Soft Mat is a custom-fit, split-edge, full-coverage car mat designed specifically for each vehicle model. It is precisely tailored based on the original car's dimensions, featuring a 1:1 streamlined design, ensuring a perfect fit for different car models. It is not a single-piece design but consists of separate mats for the driver's side, front passenger side, and a shared rear mat. 2.

How to Purchase Parallel Imported Vehicles?

Parallel imported vehicles can be purchased from 4S stores, imported car dealerships, and ports. Below is a detailed introduction to the channels for purchasing parallel imported vehicles: Purchasing from 4S Stores: Some 4S stores also deal in parallel imported vehicles. For example, a Honda 4S store may sell imported Jaguar Land Rover, Land Cruiser, Patrol, and other models, while also providing after-sales services for these vehicles. Purchasing from Imported Car Dealerships: Imported car dealerships are essentially equivalent to 4S stores, except that they sell models from multiple brands rather than a single brand. Purchasing from Ports: Currently, over 90% of China's parallel imported vehicles enter the country through ports such as Tianjin Port, Qingdao Port, Dalian Port, Fuzhou Port, and Huangpu Port, with 70% of them entering through Tianjin Port. To purchase parallel imported vehicles, you can visit the bonded zones of these ports. The warranty for vehicles purchased at ports is provided by warranty companies.

What are the reasons why the Mercedes-Benz GLK won't start?

Mercedes-Benz GLK may fail to start due to reasons such as a depleted battery, obstructed fuel flow, poor ignition system performance, or excessive carbon buildup in the throttle body. Depleted Battery: The starter motor may begin to turn but lacks sufficient power (weak rotation), eventually producing only clicking sounds without turning. Low winter temperatures and forgotten electrical devices can prevent the vehicle from starting, especially with prolonged short-distance, low-speed usage in winter, causing battery voltage to drop below rated values and preventing normal starting and operation. Obstructed Fuel Flow: Do not wait until the fuel is almost empty to refuel, as this can result in no fuel pressure in the engine's supply line. This situation often occurs on extremely cold mornings due to long-term contamination of the fuel lines. At very low temperatures, water and debris can mix, blocking the fuel lines and preventing the engine from starting. Excessive Carbon Buildup in the Throttle Body: If there is too much carbon buildup in the throttle body, the engine may also fail to start. In such cases, lightly pressing the accelerator pedal may help ignite the engine.
