Where is the fuel tank cap switch of Oshan X5?
2 Answers
The fuel tank cap switch of Oshan X5 is located under the driver's seat. There is a pull handle, and pulling this handle can open the outer fuel tank cap. Then you can see another inner cap inside, which can be removed by rotating it counterclockwise. After refueling, rotate it clockwise until you hear a click sound, indicating that it is properly closed. The following is an introduction to Changan Automobile: 1. R&D Layout: Chongqing Changan Automobile Co., Ltd., referred to as Changan Automobile, has established a global collaborative R&D layout with different focuses in Chongqing, Beijing, Hebei, Hefei, Turin in Italy, Yokohama in Japan, Birmingham in the UK, Detroit in the US, and Munich in Germany, known as the "Six Countries and Nine Locations." In 2014, the cumulative production and sales of Changan's Chinese brand vehicles exceeded 10 million, making it the first Chinese brand to join the "Ten Million Club." In April 2018, Changan Automobile officially released its Third Entrepreneurship-Innovation and Entrepreneurship Plan, aiming to transform into a world-class intelligent mobility technology company with the goal of becoming a top-tier global automobile enterprise. 2. R&D Center: Changan Automobile's Global R&D Center is located in Yufu Industrial Park, Liangjiang New District, Chongqing, and was officially put into use on April 9, 2019.

That's a great question! I've been driving the Oshan X5 for almost two years now, and the fuel filler cap switch location is indeed quite special. It's a small lever on the left side of the driver's seat, near the floor by the door, marked with a fuel pump icon. I was completely confused when I first tried to find it and had to check the manual. Just pull that lever to unlock it, then go to the fuel filler cap at the rear of the car and press the corner to pop it open. A friendly reminder: this switch is positioned quite low, so if you have thick floor mats, it can easily get covered. I'd recommend cutting a slot in the mat for easier access. Also, note that it won't open when the car is locked—you'll need to press the unlock button on the key fob first.
