There are two methods to recharge a car's air conditioning system: high-pressure side charging and low-pressure side charging. High-pressure side charging involves liquid refrigerant, characterized by safety and speed, making it suitable for the initial charging of the refrigeration system. Low-pressure side charging uses gaseous refrigerant, which is slower and typically used for topping up. Precautions when recharging car air conditioning with refrigerant: 1. Avoid direct sunlight or stove heating of refrigerant containers to prevent accidents; 2. Prevent direct contact between refrigerant and human skin to avoid frostbite; 3. Avoid refrigerant accidentally entering the eyes to prevent blindness; 4. Once the refrigerant lines are opened or if there is a leak, the refrigerant will completely escape; 5. Refrigerant in gaseous form is heavier than air, so avoid repairing the air conditioning in trenches or low-lying areas to prevent suffocation, and ensure the work area is well-ventilated.

What causes intermittent idling vibration in the Audi A4L?

The following are the reasons for intermittent idling vibration in the Audi A4L: 1. Dirty throttle valve and fuel injectors: When there is excessive carbon buildup, the gasoline sprayed by the fuel injectors does not enter the cylinders normally; instead, most of it is absorbed by the carbon deposits. This results in an overly lean air-fuel mixture, ultimately causing difficulty in starting the car. After the engine starts, the gasoline attached to the carbon deposits is absorbed and burned again, causing the engine's air-fuel mixture to become too rich. The unstable state of the air-fuel mixture leads to idling vibration. 2. Ignition system failure: The main areas to check are the spark plugs, high-voltage wires, and ignition coils. Special emphasis should be placed on the spark plugs. If the spark plugs have excessive carbon buildup, it is recommended to replace them directly. 3. Unstable fuel pressure: For this issue, it is advisable to visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair, as professional diagnostic equipment is required for analysis. The items to be checked include fuel supply pressure, intake pressure sensor, etc.
