The Buick Excelle is recommended to use 5W30 fully synthetic engine oil. Engine oil with viscosity that is too high or too low is not conducive to the normal operation of the vehicle. Currently, engine oils on the market can be roughly divided into mineral oil and synthetic oil based on their base oil, with synthetic oil further categorized into fully synthetic and semi-synthetic. Functions of engine oil: 1. Lubrication: Maintains smooth operation between the cylinder and piston, reduces friction between components, and minimizes wear. 2. Cooling: Assists the cooling system in lowering the temperature inside the engine to some extent. 3. Cleaning: Removes sludge, carbon deposits, and other impurities attached to engine parts. 4. Sealing: Seals gases within the engine's pistons and piston rings, reducing the entry of external contaminants.

Is It Harmful to Drive Without Warming Up the Car in Winter?

Driving without warming up the car in winter can cause wear and tear on the engine, transmission, and other parts of the car, leading to a shortened lifespan; it also increases fuel consumption and makes the engine more prone to carbon deposits. Reasons for warming up the car in winter: After being parked for a long time, the engine oil flows back into the oil pan at the bottom of the engine; before the engine reaches its operating temperature, the fuel system cannot effectively vaporize gasoline due to the low temperature; in cold conditions, gear oil flows to the lower part of the transmission. Specific steps for warming up the car in winter: Start the car for 30 seconds to one minute until the engine coolant reaches normal temperature, then you can start driving. However, avoid high-speed driving at this time—maintain a low speed and do not exceed 2000 RPM. While driving at low speed, monitor the coolant temperature gauge. If it rises slightly, you can shift up appropriately. After driving about one kilometer, the car will be fully warmed up, and you can then drive normally.

Is there any impact if the handbrake is not released for 200 meters?

There is an impact if the handbrake is not released for 200 meters. The following is an introduction to the relevant content: Impact: Accelerated wear of the brake discs and hardening of the brake pads due to overheating, as well as elongation of the handbrake cable. This can lead to reduced braking performance, and sometimes the burnt smell noticed by the driver comes from this. In severe cases, smoke may appear from the rear of the vehicle. Damage: Driving with the handbrake engaged causes greater wear on the braking components the faster the speed, and it also causes some damage to the tires. If the handbrake is left engaged for too long, it can cause the rear wheels to lock up, leading to smoke from friction and a significant loss of braking performance. If driving with the handbrake engaged for an extended period, it may also cause the brake caliper to seize, brake fluid leakage, and excessively high brake fluid temperature, resulting in a complete loss of braking function. If a strong burnt smell and smoke from the rear of the vehicle occur while driving, the driver should immediately slow down, brake, and release the handbrake.

What is the difference between blue and white parking lines?

Regarding the difference between white parking spaces and blue parking spaces, the details are as follows: 1. Blue parking spaces: Indicate that these are free parking spaces. However, it is important to note that there are two situations where penalties may apply. First, parking for more than a day or longer is prohibited, as blue parking spaces are meant to prevent vehicles from being maliciously occupied for extended periods. Additionally, some blue dashed-line parking spaces may indicate time-limited parking, and exceeding the time limit should be avoided. Second, some blue-lined parking spaces may have arrows indicating the parking direction, which should also be observed. 2. White parking spaces: Indicate that these are paid parking spaces. In areas with white lines, it is necessary to check roadside signs to confirm whether parking is actually permitted, as not all white lines on the roadside denote parking spaces. Even in paid parking zones, parking is not always allowed; it depends on the instructions on roadside signs, such as "No parking during the day," "Free at night," "Penalty for overtime parking," "Charging hours," etc.
