08 Accord sunroof not responding may be due to a blown fuse, electrical circuit malfunction, or mechanical failure. Additionally, sometimes insufficient lubrication on the sliding rails creates excessive resistance, triggering the sunroof's automatic anti-pinch feature, which manifests as only being able to open but not close. Extended information follows: 1. Sunroof: The primary maintenance for sunroofs involves lubricating the sliding rails. Lack of lubrication over time can lead to abnormal noises, impaired movement, incomplete sealing, or even jamming and misalignment, potentially burning out the motor. 4S dealerships typically use Hotolube or Kluber automotive sunroof grease for rail lubrication, which is also what Volkswagen group uses for their new vehicles. 2. Precautions: When maintaining sunroofs, never use Vaseline. Vaseline has a melting point of 40°C (104°F) and may melt onto interior trim during hot weather, while motor oil and butter may freeze in winter and flow in summer. Moreover, they can produce unhealthy odors.

Why Does Hot Air Enter the Car When the Air Conditioner Is Off?

When driving without turning on the air conditioner, hot air may still blow from the vents, but this is actually a normal phenomenon. Specific reasons: The air intake for the air conditioner passes through the engine. When the engine is running, heat is carried by the air to the vents, so even when the air conditioner is off, the air blown out can be hot. Fuel-saving tips for using the car heater: There is a coolant temperature gauge on the car dashboard. When the needle reaches the middle position, you can use the heat generated by the engine to blow warm air into the car; although the car may feel warm when entered before starting, the air quality inside is very poor, and it can cause fogging on the windshield. After starting the vehicle, turn on the external circulation to maintain continuous air exchange inside the car.
