Insufficient or low refrigerant level, possibly caused by minor refrigerant leakage. Below is an introduction to automotive air conditioning: 1. Automotive air conditioning overview: The automotive air conditioning system consists of a compressor, condenser, throttle element, evaporator, fan, and necessary control components, designed to regulate cabin temperature and humidity, providing a comfortable environment for drivers. 2. Working principle: When the compressor operates, it draws in low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant from the evaporator. After compression, the refrigerant's temperature and pressure increase, and it is sent to the condenser. Inside the condenser, the high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant transfers heat to the outside air passing through the condenser, causing it to liquefy into a liquid. When the liquid refrigerant flows through the throttle device, its temperature and pressure decrease, and it enters the evaporator. In the evaporator, the low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant absorbs heat from the cabin air passing through the evaporator and evaporates into gas. The gas is then drawn back into the compressor to begin the next cycle.

What are the requirements for a Beijing company to apply for a license plate?

Vehicle purchase conditions: The enterprise must have a valid business license (or industrial and commercial registration certificate), organization code certificate, and tax registration certificate. The value-added tax paid and recorded in the city in the previous year must reach a certain threshold. Non-fully funded institutions, social organizations, and other entities must have a valid organization code certificate. Here is additional information: Beijing lottery: The 8th round of the 2013 Beijing passenger car license plate lottery concluded on August 26, with over 1.55 million individual applicants participating. Only 18,499 winning codes were drawn, resulting in a winning rate of less than 1.2%, setting a new record low. It is reported that Beijing implemented the license plate lottery policy for vehicle purchases starting in January 2011, with the annual number of new passenger cars capped at 240,000.

How many kilometers for the second maintenance of Audi A6L?

Audi A6L's second maintenance mileage is 20,000 kilometers, with the first maintenance at 10,000 kilometers, and thereafter every 10,000 kilometers. The main items for the second car maintenance include: 1. Check whether the transmission, drive, and front half-shaft are well lubricated, reliably connected, easy to shift, and free from oil leakage. 2. Check whether the brake pedal and service brake meet the requirements, which are good braking performance, no deviation or oil leakage, and normal operation of the inertia proportioning valve. 3. Check whether the generator, starter, lights, instruments, signal lights, buttons, switches, and auxiliary equipment are complete and intact.

How to Lift Up Car Wipers?

To lift up car wipers, after turning off the engine or power, pull the wiper switch toward the steering wheel. The wiper blades will automatically move to the middle of the windshield, allowing you to manually lift them up. When putting them back, gently return the wiper blades by holding their spine, avoiding snapping them back abruptly. Wipers are tools installed on the front windshield of motor vehicles to simply clear rainwater and other debris that may obstruct vision. If there are stubborn or hard contaminants on the glass, they should be removed manually, as these can easily damage the wiper blades, leading to ineffective cleaning. In severe cases, the wiper motor may also be affected.

Is Slight Shaking Normal After an Oil Change?

Newly changed oil causing slight shaking is definitely not normal. Here are the reasons for slight shaking after an oil change: Oil Fill Level: If there is too much oil, the excess can easily enter the combustion chamber and form gummy carbon deposits. While there may not be obvious effects initially, over time, the carbon deposits will worsen, leading not only to idle shaking but also clogging the catalytic converter's pores, causing excessive exhaust emissions. In severe cases, oil burning may occur. Oil Viscosity and Quality: Choosing the right oil for your vehicle is crucial. If the oil viscosity is too high, it will affect the oil's flow, potentially causing engine shaking at idle. Additionally, the quality of the oil matters—substandard oil often lacks reliable quality assurance, which can lead to idle shaking and directly impact the vehicle's overall performance.

What is the small light below the headlight?

The small light below the headlight is the fog light, which is turned on during rainy or foggy weather. It has strong light penetration, reducing the adverse effects on driving visibility in complex weather conditions. Here is some relevant information: Purpose: The function of the fog light is to make the vehicle visible to other vehicles in foggy or rainy conditions where visibility is significantly affected by the weather. Therefore, the light source of the fog light needs to have strong penetration. Most vehicles use halogen fog lights, while xenon fog lights are a more advanced option. Fog light classification: Fog lights are divided into front fog lights and rear fog lights. Front fog lights are usually bright yellow, while rear fog lights are red. The symbol for the rear fog light is slightly different from that of the front fog light—the light lines of the front fog light symbol point downward, while those of the rear fog light are parallel. These symbols are generally located on the dashboard inside the vehicle.

What Causes the Jerky Braking Feeling in BYD Han?

Here is the analysis of the reasons for the jerky braking feeling in BYD Han: 1. Low-speed jerkiness: Issues with the transmission gear programming, internal dirt and impurities in the transmission preventing effective adjustment, and poor transmission cooling, which affects oil pressure and causes jerking. 2. Upshift jerkiness: The transmission's response speed is not fast enough, and the upshift speed cannot keep up with the throttle input. 3. Downshift jerkiness: Due to the intervention of the energy recovery system, when the driver releases the throttle pedal or presses the brake pedal, it affects the engine speed, causing a mismatch between the engine speed and the clutch speed, resulting in a jerky feeling.
