BMW cars suddenly stop cooling due to a lack of refrigerant in the compressor. Here is an introduction to air conditioning: Introduction: Car air conditioning refers to the air conditioning device installed in a vehicle, which can cool, heat, ventilate, and purify the air inside the cabin, providing a comfortable environment for passengers, reducing driver fatigue, and improving driving safety. Structure: It generally includes cooling devices, heating devices, and ventilation devices. This combined system makes full use of the limited space inside the car, featuring a simple structure and easy operation, making it a popular modern car air conditioning system internationally. Layout: Different types of air conditioning systems have varying layouts. Currently, most passenger cars widely use an integrated heating and cooling air conditioning system. The layout typically involves assembling components such as the evaporator, heater core, centrifugal blower, and control mechanisms together, referred to as the air conditioning unit assembly.

What to Do When the Car Suddenly Won't Start?

If the car won't start but the lights and horn still work, you can try push-starting the car by engaging second or third gear and pressing the clutch. Prepare a set of jumper cables, bring the two cars close but not touching, identify the positive and negative terminals, connect them with the cables, and then start the vehicle. Keep an emergency car power source in your vehicle. When the car won't start, connect the emergency power source to the battery with cables and then start the engine directly. If the car won't start, check the fuel gauge to see if there's fuel. Don't wait until the tank is empty to refuel, as this can affect the engine's lifespan and damage the fuel pump.

What is the difference between the manufacturing date and the factory release date?

The difference between the factory release date and the production date is explained in detail as follows: 1. Main difference: For the most advanced automobile manufacturers using modern production models, these two concepts are essentially the same definition with no significant difference. If a distinction must be made, the former refers to the exact time the car was produced, while the latter represents the time the vehicle moves from the production line to the market for sale. 2. Whole vehicle factory release date: All multinational automotive giants follow the principle of the lowest price in the country of origin for their production, with global configurations. The date generally seen on the vehicle body and the certificate of conformity is the whole vehicle factory release date (production date) of the car.

What to Do When the Car Air Conditioner Blows Air but Doesn't Cool?

If the car air conditioner isn't cooling due to a dirty condenser, simply rinse it clean with water. You can do this yourself at no cost, without spending a penny. If the car's air filter is covered in dust, the cooling effect will be significantly reduced, affecting the air conditioner's performance. Therefore, the car's air filter should be replaced regularly. If the lack of cooling is determined to be due to insufficient refrigerant, simply visit an auto repair shop to add the appropriate refrigerant to resolve the issue. When the compressor slips during operation, it reduces the compressor's speed, thereby decreasing the efficiency of compressing the refrigerant. In this case, the belt should be tightened or replaced with a new drive belt.
