All vehicles, when operating with the external air circulation on, will allow engine compartment heat to enter the cabin, especially at high speeds, even if the temperature is set to the lowest. If the air vent is set to blow both at the face and feet, you will definitely feel heat at your feet. The solution is to avoid blowing air at the feet, switch to internal circulation, or simply turn off the air intake. The air box contains two sets of heat exchangers: one for cooling and the other for heating. Additionally, heat can also come from the engine. There is essentially just a sheet of metal separating the engine and the cabin, indicating poor insulation in the vehicle.

What brand is Zhou Shengchen's car in the TV series 'Forever and Ever'?

Zhou Shengchen's car in the TV series 'Forever and Ever' is a Maybach. Introduction to Maybach: The Maybach (MAYBACH) brand was first established in the 1920s. Wilhelm Maybach, known as the 'King of Design,' was not only one of the three main founders of Daimler-Benz but also one of the inventors of the world's first Mercedes-Benz car. Maybach Logo: The legendary brand logo consists of two intersecting M's enclosed within a spherical triangle. Initially, the two M's stood for Maybach Motorenbau, but now they represent Maybach Manufaktur.

Is a Broken Transmission Easy to Repair?

Transmission is easy to repair. Definition of Transmission: A transmission is a gearbox that changes the transmission ratio and direction of motion. It is located between the clutch and the central drive. Its main functions are: changing the driving force and speed of the vehicle (shifting) while keeping the engine speed and torque unchanged; enabling the vehicle to reverse (direction change); and allowing the engine to idle without stalling (neutral gear). Based on the transmission type, gear transmissions can be divided into three types: dual-shaft, three-shaft, and composite. Causes of Transmission Failure: Excessive transmission temperature: After high-intensity driving, the transmission temperature can rise abnormally, causing the warning light to illuminate. In this case, simply stopping the vehicle to let the temperature naturally decrease is sufficient. Low transmission fluid: When the transmission fluid is low, the transmission warning light will illuminate to remind the driver to replenish it promptly. Generally, transmission fluid should be replaced and replenished after the vehicle has been driven approximately 50,000-80,000 kilometers.

What are the reasons for a car not being able to engage reverse gear?

The reasons for not being able to engage reverse gear include the clutch not being fully depressed, the gear teeth aligning exactly, or issues with the car's transmission. Clutch not fully depressed: For manual transmission cars, some require the clutch pedal to be fully depressed to engage gears. Solution: Simply press the clutch pedal deeper to resolve this issue. Gear teeth aligning exactly: Many cars do not have synchronizers installed for reverse gear, so when attempting to engage reverse, the teeth of the two gears may align exactly, causing the gear to jam and preventing engagement. Solution: Shift into a forward gear first, then try engaging reverse again. Issues with the car's transmission: When shifting from a higher gear to a lower gear, it's easy to cause impact between the gear teeth or spline teeth. The synchronizer's role is to prevent such impacts. The main components of a synchronizer include the engaging sleeve and synchronizer ring, achieving synchronization primarily through friction. Solution: It is recommended to visit a 4S shop for repair. The required repair costs may be relatively high, and the repair time may be lengthy.

What are the differences between B-segment, A-segment, and C-segment cars?

The differences between B-segment, A-segment, and C-segment cars are as follows: Different engine displacements: Generally, A-segment cars have smaller displacements than B-segment cars, which in turn have smaller displacements than C-segment cars. Typically, the higher the vehicle segment, the better the engine and the larger the displacement. A-segment cars usually have displacements between 1.0L and 1.4L, B-segment cars between 1.4L and 2.5L, and C-segment cars between 2.0L and 3.5L. Different wheelbases: A-segment cars are shorter than B-segment cars, which are shorter than C-segment cars. A-segment cars have wheelbases between 2.3 meters and 2.45 meters, B-segment cars between 2.6 meters and 2.85 meters, and C-segment cars between 2.8 meters and 3 meters. Different prices: A-segment cars are cheaper than B-segment cars, which are cheaper than C-segment cars. Among them, C-segment cars are the most expensive, as they belong to the luxury segment and are equipped with more features compared to lower-segment vehicles.

Can I get my car serviced at a 4S store during the National Day holiday?

You can get your car serviced at a 4S store during the National Day holiday. Content of minor maintenance: Minor maintenance generally refers to the routine maintenance items performed at the time or mileage specified by the manufacturer to ensure vehicle performance after the car has traveled a certain distance. It mainly includes changing the engine oil and oil filter. Interval of minor maintenance: The interval for minor maintenance depends on the effective time or mileage of the engine oil and oil filter used. The validity periods of mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil, and full synthetic oil vary among different brand grades, so please follow the manufacturer's recommendations. Oil filters are generally divided into conventional and long-life types. Conventional oil filters are replaced along with the engine oil, while long-life oil filters have a longer service life.

What to Do If the Car Antifreeze Is Low?

If the car antifreeze is low, you can add it yourself. You need to purchase antifreeze of the same color as the original or a universal type. If the colors are different, you must completely drain the original antifreeze before adding the new one. Different colors and brands of antifreeze may have different formula components. Mixing them may cause chemical reactions between the various components, which can affect the antifreeze's performance. Method for Replacing Antifreeze: Drain the old antifreeze, then flush the fluid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the antifreeze reservoir, then continuously pour water into the reservoir to allow it to flow through the engine cooling system. Start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. The water initially flowing out of the reservoir will have a faint pink color. Continue adding clean water until the outflowing water is clear. Note: Do not forget to disconnect the heater hose and drain the water from the heater core. After draining for about an hour, add the new antifreeze through the radiator hose. This allows the antifreeze to flow quickly into the radiator. Then, add another bottle of antifreeze to the antifreeze reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. At this point, the coolant level will drop slightly as air is purged from the system. Add more antifreeze until the reservoir reaches the "MAXT" mark.
