The reason for the noise in the car's air conditioning expansion valve is that the expansion valve is blocked. Below is an introduction to the causes of air conditioning not cooling: 1. Internal damage: Severe internal wear of the compressor leads to its inability to function properly. 2. Oil stains: The presence of oil stains at connections or seams indicates refrigerant leakage, requiring reinforcement or replacement of related parts. 3. Circuit system failure: Circuit system failures causing the car's air conditioning compressor to malfunction are also very common. You can check if the circuit is unobstructed, inspect the temperature sensor solenoid valve, and other potential fault causes. 4. Low-pressure gauge reading much lower than normal: The surface temperature of the compressor suction pipe is lower than normal, appearing damp and cold (commonly known as sweating).

Is 100 km/h Considered Speeding?

100 km/h is equivalent to 100 kilometers per hour, which translates to 1667 meters per minute or 28 meters per second. This is already a very high speed. Below are the relevant speed limit regulations: 1. For roads without a central dividing line, the speed limit is 30 km/h in urban areas and 40 km/h on highways. 2. For roads with only one motor vehicle lane in the same direction, the speed limit is 50 km/h in urban areas and 70 km/h on highways. 3. When entering or exiting non-motorized lanes, passing through railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads, or narrow bridges, making U-turns, turning, descending steep slopes, or encountering fog, rain, snow, dust, hail with visibility within 50 meters, driving on icy, snowy, or muddy roads, or towing a malfunctioning motor vehicle, the maximum speed must not exceed 30 km/h. For tractors, battery-powered vehicles, and wheeled special machinery vehicles, the speed must not exceed 15 km/h under these conditions.

Are low beam and headlights the same type of light?

Low beam and headlights are not the same type of light. Below is an introduction to relevant knowledge about automotive lighting: 1. Function: Automotive lights are various traffic lights installed on vehicles to ensure safe driving. They are divided into two categories: illumination lights and signal lights. 2. Classification: Headlights, fog lights, reverse lights, license plate lights, dome lights, instrument panel lights, and trunk lights. 3. Precautions: Checking automotive lights is one of the simpler steps among all new car inspection precautions. However, because the installation of lights is more prone to issues during the overall vehicle assembly process, it is important to take this inspection step seriously as well.

Is Fuchs PT7 Engine Oil Fully Synthetic?

Fuchs PT7 engine oil is not fully synthetic. Below is relevant information about synthetic oil: 1. Introduction to synthetic oil: Synthetic oil is derived from ethylene and propylene dispersed from natural gas or gas in crude oil, which then undergoes complex chemical reactions (Fischer-Tropsch synthesis technology, i.e., GTL technology) to refine into large-molecule base oil. 2. Advantages of synthetic oil: Synthetic oil has a higher viscosity index, so it has better viscosity-temperature characteristics, providing more sufficient lubrication at high temperatures and better fluidity at low temperatures (appearing thinner than mineral oil of the same grade at room temperature). Engine oil blended with synthetic oil has stronger oxidation resistance, significantly extending the oil change interval. Although the investment in oil increases, the number of oil and filter changes is reduced.

Is 8 liters per 100 kilometers considered high fuel consumption?

8 liters per 100 kilometers is a normal level of fuel consumption, not high. Here is relevant information about fuel consumption: 1. Information about fuel consumption levels: Fuel consumption is affected by the vehicle type. If it's a micro or compact car, then 8 liters would be considered a relatively high level of fuel consumption. For a family sedan, this is normal. For a mid-size car, 8 liters is actually relatively low. Generally speaking, the larger the engine displacement, the higher the corresponding fuel consumption. 2. Factors affecting fuel consumption: There are many factors that affect fuel consumption, not just the powertrain of the engine, but also the transmission, drag coefficient, body weight, and tires. Also very important are driving habits, vehicle condition, and road conditions.

What are the driving modes of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

The Mercedes-Benz E-Class offers five driving modes: ECO, Standard, Sport, Comfort, and Custom. Press the 'DYNAMIC' button located on the center console to switch between driving modes. Below are the detailed descriptions: 1. ECO Mode: In this mode, the vehicle's computer limits fuel injection and controls the gearshift logic of the transmission. 2. Standard Mode: This mode provides a balanced performance in all aspects, meeting most driving needs. Drivers can use the Standard Mode for extended periods if no specific requirements exist. In this mode, the suspension is appropriately tuned, and the engine delivers smooth and comfortable power output. 3. Sport Mode: In this mode, the vehicle's gearshift logic becomes more aggressive. Delayed upshifts allow the vehicle to achieve high torque output right from the start. The engine maintains high RPMs, keeping the vehicle in a highly dynamic state. The most noticeable effect is the enhanced acceleration, allowing drivers to feel the vehicle's explosive power. 4. Comfort Mode: The suspension becomes softer, the steering wheel is easier to maneuver, and the body is lowered. For instance, when crossing speed bumps or encountering sudden braking situations, the comfort level of the vehicle is significantly improved. Passengers experience reduced jerks and a smoother ride. 5. Custom Mode: Drivers can set different parameters according to their personal preferences and driving habits.

Why Should You Steer in the Opposite Direction When the Front Wheels Skid?

The result of skidding is that the direction of the vehicle's acceleration does not align with the axis of the car, making it difficult for the car's power to effectively control the vehicle. Correction involves changing the direction of the power to realign the acceleration direction with the vehicle's axis, thereby regaining control over the vehicle's movement. Below are relevant explanations: 1. Vehicle Skidding: When a moving vehicle experiences braking, rotational inertia, or other factors that cause the wheels of one axle or both axles to move laterally (i.e., swing sideways), this phenomenon is called skidding. 2. Causes of Skidding: Slippery roads due to wet conditions, oil spills, or ice reduce the coefficient of friction and create asymmetry between the left and right sides. The wheel load and road adhesion also decrease, making the wheels prone to skidding with even slight lateral forces. During braking, if the four wheels experience unbalanced resistance—such as unequal braking force on the left and right wheels, varying coefficients of friction, or a load center of gravity biased to one side—it can lead to 'pulling' and easily cause wheel skidding.
