Function of a car air conditioner: It is used for cooling or heating. The air conditioner is a comfort feature, and equipping a car with an air conditioner can enhance comfort during driving or riding. When it's hot and you need to turn on the air conditioner to cool down, press the AC button, and an indicator light should illuminate on the button. The car's air conditioning compressor starts working, and cold air blows out from the vents, lowering the temperature inside the car. The heating principle of a car air conditioner is very simple. After turning on the heating function, the high-temperature coolant from the engine flows through the heater core, and the air blown by the blower passes through the heater core, allowing warm air to blow out from the air conditioner vents.

Why Does the Transmission Make Abnormal Noises?

Transmissions can produce abnormal noises due to various hardware-related reasons. The possible causes of abnormal noises in a transmission may include the following: 1. Wear and damage of bearings: When bearings wear out, the clearance increases, and the fitting accuracy decreases; when bearings are damaged, abnormal noises will occur as the bearings cannot operate normally, and may even cause damage to the transmission components, leading to further faults. 2. Wear of transmission components: For example, excessive clearance due to gear wear or mismatched new gears. 3. Insufficient lubricant: In this case, the corresponding lubricant (grease) should be replaced; otherwise, it will accelerate the wear of the transmission and shorten its service life. 4. Possibly insufficient clutch engagement force: This results in inadequate output power. The clutch should be adjusted.

Should I Shift Gears Based on RPM or Speedometer?

If you are a beginner, it is recommended to first look at the speedometer and shift gears according to the speed. Below is an introduction to the relevant knowledge about shifting gears: 1. Conservative shifting method: Start in 1st gear, shift to 2nd gear at around 20, shift to 3rd gear at around 35, shift to 4th gear at around 50, and shift to 5th gear at 60 and above. 2. Downshifting: Observe the speed you are reducing to and choose a similar gear as mentioned above. 3. When proficient in operation: Many experienced drivers can shift gears by observing the engine RPM, and some can even complete the shift without looking at the instruments, just by listening to the sound of the engine.

Where is the Sylphy's radiator located?

The radiator of the Sylphy is located at the front end of the vehicle near the fan. Here are the maintenance steps for the car radiator: 1. Park the vehicle and turn off the engine. Wait for the coolant temperature to drop, then open the expansion tank and add radiator cleaner. 2. Start the engine and let it idle for 5-10 minutes after the cooling fan starts working. 3. Turn off the engine and remove the front bumper. Ensure all fixing screws are loosened during removal, and slowly detach it from both ends towards the center to avoid breaking any clips. 4. After ensuring the coolant has completely cooled, drain the radiator cleaner along with the coolant, then refill with new engine coolant.

What are the symptoms of a bad car fuel pump?

There are different symptoms depending on the severity of the fuel pump failure. The following are symptoms of fuel pump failure at different levels: 1. Complete failure: If the fuel pump is completely broken, it cannot pump any fuel at all, causing the fuel supply system to collapse and the vehicle to fail to start. 2. Partial failure: Damage to the fuel pump check valve can lead to residual fuel pressure, preventing the fuel pressure from reaching the specified value, greatly reducing the atomization effect, making it difficult to start the engine, and requiring multiple ignition attempts over a long period. Mechanical faults such as rotor jamming: The working current of the fuel pump increases, causing damage to the relay or fuse. 3. Engine issues: The engine warning light comes on, and the engine experiences abnormal shaking.
