[Pacific Auto Network Car Center] With the decline in the average age of car buyers, the A-class car market can be described as a wind and water. The Buick Hideo series is a representative of the A-class. Whether it is a hatchback that the Chinese are accepting, or a traditional sedan, it can meet the needs of consumers in the Yinglang series. As a Class A car, Yinglang may be concerned about the maintenance situation in China. So which period of maintenance is Yinglang's maintenance can be DIY? What is the difficulty of maintenance? What is the type of accessories? Please see the detailed maintenance of this issue.

Regarding the vehicle maintenance cycle and replacement items, the vehicle manufacturer will inform the owner of the vehicle maintenance manual. However, these data are produced according to ideal conditions, and the actual situation will change according to individual or local conditions. Therefore, the 4S maintenance department will make adjustments and suggestions for the maintenance cycle and the project according to the local vehicle condition (fuel quality, air condition, road condition) and the owner's usage, in order to give you a more comprehensive understanding of the repair station and The manufacturer's maintenance information, the following small series will explain to you in the manual.

At present, the Yinglang series has a total of 1.6L, 1.8L and 1.6T engines on the market. In fact, all three engines are Ecotec series engines, so the three engines can be said to be derived from the same model, so they The technical indicators are basically the same, and the accessories are basically the same. Except for the models equipped with turbine engines that require high-quality oil and better spark plugs, the 1.6L and 1.8L models are identical in terms of accessories. In the gearbox, Yinglang is equipped with a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed manual. Because the technology is basically the same, the maintenance manuals for all the models are the same, and the maintenance items are the same. At the same time, the manufacturer provides a warranty of 2 years or 60,000 kilometers, whichever comes first.

We can see from the maintenance manual. The maintenance form period marked on the instruction sheet is 10,000 km, but the replacement period of the oil and oil filter is 5000 km, which means that the actual maintenance period of Yinglang is 5000 km. The replacement period of air filter and air conditioner filter is 20,000 kilometers, which is considered to be quite satisfactory in the same class. The replacement period of the gasoline filter is 60,000 kilometers, which is a relatively long cycle in the same class. Among them, the transmission oil needs to be inspected every time. The automatic transmission oil is replaced at 60,000 km, and the manual transmission oil is 80,000 km. Among them, manufacturers recommend adding a fuel additive to each maintenance with a turbo model. Please see the table below for details:

The replacement of the fuel filter is mainly to prevent fouling of the dirt, resulting in an increase in daily fuel consumption. The owner can adjust the cycle according to different local oil conditions or follow the advice of the 4S shop. The air-conditioning filter is replaced every 20,000 km. This cycle can be adapted to most areas. If the dust storm is serious in your area, the cycle can be adjusted appropriately. Among them, Yinglang uses electronic power, so there is no need to change the direction oil. The maintenance cycle of spark plugs is more frequent than that of the same class.
