Generally, it is recommended to clean the carbon deposits in the car's engine after 2 years of use or when the mileage reaches 40,000 kilometers. Introduction to Carbon Deposits: Carbon deposits refer to the black, sticky residues formed on components such as fuel injectors, throttle valves, fuel lines, spark plugs, cylinder heads, and inner walls due to incomplete combustion of gasoline in the cylinders. These residues are then subjected to repeated high temperatures in the engine. Hazards of Carbon Deposits to the Car Engine: If carbon deposits are not cleaned for a long time, it can lead to reduced engine power, increased fuel consumption, engine noise, and unstable idle speed.

What are the methods for repairing a car air conditioner that is not cooling?

Car air conditioner not cooling repair methods are: 1. Add air conditioner refrigerant; 2. Check the pipelines in the car air conditioning system and whether the air conditioning pump components are damaged; 3. Use a high-pressure water gun to clean the condenser's heat dissipation fins, then dry them with a high-pressure air gun. The reasons for a car air conditioner not cooling are: 1. Lack of refrigerant, insufficient refrigerant in the air conditioning system pipelines, leading to reduced pressure; 2. Long-term lack of maintenance, clogged air filter and condenser; 3. Air conditioning compressor failure; 4. Loose drive belt of the air conditioning compressor, causing reduced compressor speed; 5. Poor remote control or poor air conditioner receiver; 6. Four-way valve or compressor high and low pressure cross-leakage, rendering the air conditioner ineffective.

What is the function of a transmission?

The functions of a transmission are: 1. To change the transmission ratio to meet the traction requirements under different driving conditions; 2. To enable reverse driving, meeting the need for the vehicle to move backward; 3. To interrupt power transmission; 4. To achieve neutral gear. The transmission, also known as the gearbox, is a mechanism used to change the speed and torque from the engine, and it can fix or change the transmission ratio between the output shaft and the input shaft in steps. Transmissions are divided into: 1. Stepped transmission: Uses gear transmission and has several fixed transmission ratios; 2. Continuously variable transmission (CVT): A transmission system that can continuously obtain any transmission ratio within the speed range.
