Here are the reasons why a car's air conditioning does not provide heat: 1. Insufficient coolant: A lack of coolant can also cause the car's air conditioning to not provide heat. 2. Damaged water pump: A damaged water pump can lead to a failure in the coolant circulation system, which can also result in the car's air conditioning not providing heat. 3. Clogged heater core: A clogged heater core prevents the hot water inside the engine from circulating to the radiator, causing the air conditioning to not provide heat. 4. Faulty radiator fan: If the radiator fan runs continuously, it can make it difficult for the coolant inside the radiator to heat up, leading to the air conditioning not providing heat.

What is the most fuel-efficient engine RPM for a car?

Each car has its own economical RPM range. Here is some information about car RPM: 1. According to the law of energy conservation, the less fuel consumed, the less work is done, which also applies to the automotive industry. In the most fuel-efficient state, the power output is weaker, and of course, the speed won't be too fast. Therefore, to determine the most fuel-efficient RPM, we need to analyze it under low-speed conditions. 2. Currently, there are two mainstream types of engines in the domestic market. One is the small-displacement turbocharged engine, represented by the 1.5T, and the other is the larger-displacement naturally aspirated engine, represented by the 2.0L. These two types of engines have their own different economical RPM ranges. 3. Take a manual transmission car as an example. Of course, you need to be in the highest gear. While ensuring no jerking or shaking, try to reduce your speed. When the engine starts to shake, press the accelerator, and the RPM after pressing the accelerator is the economical RPM. For example, if a car is in fifth gear and the engine slightly shakes at 1400 RPM, indicating the need to downshift, but after pressing the accelerator, the RPM rises to 1600 RPM without shaking, then the economical RPM for this car is 1600 RPM. The same logic applies to most manual transmission cars. 4. To some extent, maintaining a high gear and low RPM without causing engine shaking or jerking is the most fuel-efficient. If the car has cruise control, after driving for a certain distance, the combined fuel consumption will be lower than the official fuel consumption.

Can the Axela be equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system?

The Axela can be equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system. Installing a tire pressure monitoring system allows you to keep track of whether the tire pressure is normal at all times, reducing tire damage and extending the service life of the tires. There are two types of tire pressure monitoring systems: one is the indirect tire pressure monitoring system, and the other is the direct tire pressure monitoring system. The Axela is a mid-size car launched by FAW Mazda, with dimensions of 4670mm in length, 1780mm in width, and 1435mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2675mm. It is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 108kw, and is paired with a 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic transmission.

What Causes Engine Oil Leakage in Cars?

The reasons for engine oil leakage in cars are: 1. Loose screws, damaged gaskets, or improper installation; 2. Leakage from front and rear crankshaft oil seals or improper installation of oil seals; 3. Improper installation of lubricating oil filters, pressure relief valves, sensors, etc.; 4. Cracks or holes in the oil pan; 5. Loose, broken, or poorly fitted oil pipes; 6. Leakage from the camshaft bearing rear oil seal cover. Solutions for engine oil leakage: 1. Replace the valve cover gasket; 2. Remove the oil pan, replace the oil pan sealing gasket, and reapply sealant; 3. Tighten or replace the drain screw. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine.

What are the symptoms of a damaged flywheel?

When a car's flywheel is damaged, it will cause abnormal noises from the engine during operation, accompanied by noticeable vibrations, and can also lead to an imbalance in the transmission shaft of the gearbox. The car flywheel is a disc-shaped component with a large moment of inertia, functioning like an energy storage device. Since the power strokes of each cylinder in the engine are not continuous, the engine speed fluctuates. When the engine speed increases, the flywheel's kinetic energy rises, storing energy. Conversely, when the engine speed decreases, the flywheel's kinetic energy reduces, releasing the stored energy. The flywheel helps minimize speed fluctuations during engine operation. The car flywheel is mounted at the rear end of the engine crankshaft. Through the clutch installed on the flywheel, it connects the engine to the vehicle's transmission system and engages with the starter motor to facilitate engine starting. Additionally, it serves as the integration point for the crankshaft position sensor and vehicle speed sensor. Methods to determine flywheel damage: Check if the starter ring gear on the flywheel is intact. If the ring gear shows severe wear at the tooth ends or broken teeth, the starter ring gear or the entire flywheel needs replacement. Inspect the flywheel surface for severe burns, impact marks, scratches, etc. If such damage is present, the flywheel must be replaced. Measure the wear depth of the grooves. If it exceeds 0.5mm, it indicates the flywheel is damaged and requires replacement.
