The reasons for the Volkswagen Lavida's air conditioning not cooling are: 1. Excessive refrigerant, appropriately reduce the refrigerant amount; 2. Abnormal noise from the cooling fan, dust and dirt on the condenser pipe; 3. Blockage in the pipeline system; 4. Dust and scale accumulation on the evaporator or filter; 5. Lack of refrigerant. Taking the Volkswagen Lavida 2021 model as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4670mm, width 1806mm, height 1474mm, with a wheelbase of 2688mm. The Volkswagen Lavida 2021 model is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 110kW and a maximum torque of 250Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

It's really annoying when the air conditioning isn't cold while driving. My Lavida had this issue too. Common problems include insufficient refrigerant, possibly due to a leak, which needs refilling; compressor failure, where it makes a humming noise but no air comes out; the condenser being too dirty or clogged, leading to poor heat dissipation and no cooling; the fan not working, affecting airflow; or the filter being completely clogged with dust, obstructing air circulation. I think driving without cold air in summer is unbearable and even affects safety. Don't underestimate the filter—try checking, cleaning, or replacing it yourself first, as it's not costly. If there's no improvement, you'll need to check the system pressure or visit a professional repair shop. Regular maintenance, like changing the filter once a year, can prevent major issues and avoid travel delays. Delaying repairs will only make things worse—fixing it early brings peace of mind sooner.

How Long Does It Take to Check Traffic Violations Processed Online by Fuzhou Traffic Police?

According to traffic regulations, after a motor vehicle commits a violation, it generally takes 3 to 7 days to check online or receive an SMS notification, with the latest being no more than 13 working days. Below are the relevant details: On-site enforcement: If you are caught by traffic police on-site and sign the confirmation, the vehicle owner must go to the local traffic police station to handle the violation within 15 days of the violation. If it exceeds 15 days without handling, a late fee of 3% per day will be charged, but the late fee amount will not exceed double the original fine. Surveillance camera: If the violation is captured by an electronic surveillance camera, the vehicle owner can check the violation record on the traffic website and then go to the local traffic police station to handle the violation within one month before the annual vehicle inspection. There is no need to handle it within 15 days, but be careful not to exceed one driving license's demerit point cycle to avoid accumulating 12 points in the next cycle due to not clearing the points in time.

Can 1 Million Third-Party Liability Cover the Other Party's Car Repairs?

1 million third-party liability can cover the other party's car repairs. Here are the details: 1. Third-Party Liability Insurance: This refers to accidental incidents caused by qualified drivers permitted by the insured while using the insured vehicle, resulting in direct personal injury, death, or property damage to a third party. The insurer will provide compensation according to the relevant provisions in the insurance contract for the amount the insured is legally obligated to pay. 2. The four basic types of auto insurance: Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance, Vehicle Damage Insurance, Third-Party Liability Insurance, and Passenger Liability Insurance. Among these, Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance is a mandatory coverage required by the state for all motor vehicles. Vehicle Damage Insurance can compensate for vehicle losses caused by traffic accidents within reasonable limits. Third-Party Liability Insurance serves as a supplement to Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance, covering third-party property damage and personal injury or death caused by the insured vehicle. Passenger Liability Insurance primarily compensates for injuries or deaths of passengers in the insured vehicle caused by traffic accidents, including the driver and passengers.

Can a deteriorated three-way catalytic converter still be used?

A deteriorated three-way catalytic converter cannot continue to be used. Here are the specific details: 1. Function of the three-way catalytic converter: The three-way catalytic converter is the most important external purification device installed in the automobile exhaust system. It converts harmful gases such as CO, HC, and NOx emitted by automobile exhaust into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen through oxidation and reduction. Since this catalytic converter can simultaneously convert the main harmful substances in the exhaust into harmless substances. With increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements, more and more automobiles are equipped with exhaust catalytic converters and oxygen sensor devices. It is installed in the engine exhaust pipe and, through redox reactions, converts carbon dioxide and nitrogen, hence it is also called a three-way (efficiency) catalytic converter. 2. Principle of the three-way catalytic converter: When high-temperature automobile exhaust passes through the purification device, the purifying agent in the three-way catalytic converter enhances the activity of the three gases CO, HC, and NOx, promoting certain oxidation-reduction chemical reactions. Among them, CO oxidizes at high temperatures into colorless, non-toxic carbon dioxide gas; HC compounds oxidize at high temperatures into water (H2O) and carbon dioxide; NOx is reduced into nitrogen and oxygen. Therefore, its function is to transform the three harmful gases into harmless gases, thereby purifying the automobile exhaust.

What is the function of a catalytic converter?

The function of a catalytic converter is to transform harmful gases such as CO, HC, and NOx emitted from vehicle exhaust into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen through oxidation and reduction reactions. Performance characteristics of a catalytic converter: The three-way catalytic converter is stable in performance, reliable in quality, and has a long service life. The carrier component of the three-way catalytic converter is a porous ceramic material installed in a specially designed exhaust pipe. It is called a carrier because it does not participate in the catalytic reaction itself but is coated with precious metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium. It converts HC and CO in the exhaust into water and CO2, while decomposing NOx into nitrogen and oxygen. HC and CO are toxic gases, excessive inhalation of which can be fatal, and NOx directly contributes to the formation of photochemical smog. Working principle of a catalytic converter: When high-temperature vehicle exhaust passes through the purification device, the purifying agent in the three-way catalytic converter enhances the activity of CO, HC, and NOx, promoting certain oxidation-reduction chemical reactions. Among these, CO is oxidized into colorless, non-toxic carbon dioxide gas at high temperatures; HC compounds are oxidized into water (H2O) and carbon dioxide; and NOx is reduced into nitrogen and oxygen. The three harmful gases are transformed into harmless gases, thereby purifying the vehicle exhaust.

Is Chepu Fuel Additive Really Effective?

Chepu fuel additive has shown significant effects in practical tests. Here are the details: Engine carbon deposits: When carbon deposits have formed in the car's engine, a cleaning-type additive can be used to remove them. The fuel additive can break down the chemical structure of the carbon deposits, dissolving the carbon from the metal surface and expelling it through the exhaust. Noticeable improvements: After using the fuel additive, the carbon deposits on the piston heads inside the cylinders show clear improvements. In areas where carbon deposits were relatively thin, they have been completely removed, while in areas with thicker deposits, "orange-peel-like wrinkles" appear, indicating that the carbon deposits have started to loosen and are being cleared away.
