If the vehicle exhibits a ticking sound during the transition from cold to warm engine state, lasting about 3 minutes, it is a normal phenomenon and not a problem. This is due to the larger valve clearance in a cold engine and poor lubrication. However, if the sound occurs during acceleration, it is not caused by the valves. Other possible reasons include: 1. Mild knocking: It could be slight knocking. 2. Mild piston slap or ring sticking: There might be slight piston slap or ring sticking. 3. Cylinder wall protrusion: It could be due to cylinder wall protrusion, requiring inspection by an experienced technician.

What are the reasons for a new car's air conditioning not cooling?

In general, the most likely reason for a new car's air conditioning not cooling is the lack of refrigerant in the vehicle. It could also be due to insufficient power supply voltage. Below is a detailed explanation of the reasons for a new car's air conditioning not cooling: 1. Insufficient refrigerant: Refrigerant, also known as coolant or freon, is the medium substance used in various thermal machines to complete energy conversion. It can absorb heat from the cooled object at low temperatures and then transfer it to cooling water or air at higher temperatures. A lack of refrigerant in the vehicle will cause the car's air conditioning not to cool. 2. Insufficient power supply voltage: The normal starting voltage for air conditioning is 220V ±10%. Almost all compressors can start at voltages above 200V. At voltages above 180V, 70-80% can start. At voltages above 160V, only a few machines can start. Insufficient power supply voltage will cause the car's air conditioning not to cool.
