When the refrigerant oil level in a car's air conditioning system is insufficient, the air conditioning compressor may exhibit abnormal noises or overheating symptoms. Below are the methods for adding refrigerant oil to a car's air conditioning system: 1. Direct Pouring: The direct pouring method simply involves opening the compressor's plug port and pouring the refrigerant oil directly into the compressor. 2. Vacuum Suction: (1) Evacuation: Use a specialized vacuum tool to extract the air from inside the air conditioning system. (2) Negative Pressure Suction: After the air inside the air conditioning system is extracted, use negative pressure to draw the refrigerant oil into the compressor through the yellow hose. (3) Adding Refrigerant: Once the refrigerant oil is completely drawn into the compressor, the addition of refrigerant oil is complete, and then refrigerant can be directly added.

How to remove the headlights of a Tuano?

First, ensure the vehicle has been turned off for more than 5 minutes, remove the key, and wait for the engine to cool down completely before opening the engine hood to avoid burns from hot components. Remove the headlight assembly by unclipping the fasteners or unscrewing the bolts, then carefully detach the headlight. Be cautious to protect the wiring harness on the headlight during removal. Use a heat gun to warm the area around the headlight cover to soften the adhesive, then gently pry off the cover. After removing the headlight cover, release the clips to take out the bulb.

What is HUD?

HUD refers to a Head-Up Display, which was originally mainly used in military fighter jets as an important auxiliary instrument for aircraft. Later, it was applied to automobiles. Through the principle of optical reflection, important information is projected onto the windshield, eliminating the need for drivers to look down, making it convenient and safe. The function of HUD is to ensure the stability of the driver's operation, allowing them to focus more on observing road conditions. Relevant information during vehicle operation is projected onto the front windshield via the HUD system, so that the driver no longer needs to look down at the instrument cluster. This greatly enhances the driver's concentration while driving and improves driving safety.
