BMW 525li air conditioning not cooling is due to lack of refrigerant. Here is extended information about air conditioning: 1. Meaning: The air conditioning system mainly compresses gaseous refrigerant into high-temperature and high-pressure gas through the compressor, which then flows through pipes into the condenser. Inside the condenser, it dissipates heat and cools down through the cooling fan, condensing into high-pressure liquid refrigerant that flows out. 2. Refrigerant: The high-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the dryer reservoir through pipes, where it is dried and filtered before flowing into the expansion valve for throttling. Its state changes dramatically, turning into low-temperature and low-pressure liquid refrigerant that enters the evaporator. Inside the evaporator, it absorbs heat from the air flowing through, lowering the air temperature and blowing out cold air, creating a cooling effect. The refrigerant itself evaporates into low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant due to absorbed heat, which is then sucked into the compressor through pipes for compression. As long as the compressor works continuously, the refrigerant circulates continuously in the air conditioning system, producing a cooling effect. When the compressor stops working, the refrigerant in the system stops flowing, and no cooling effect is produced.

Why does the Volkswagen sunroof open and close automatically?

Volkswagen sunroof opens and closes automatically for the following reasons: The sunroof opens and closes automatically because there was a foreign object stuck in the sunroof track, and the sunroof memorized this position to prevent forced closing from damaging the sunroof system. The issue can be resolved by resetting the sunroof position. Press and hold the sunroof switch's open button until the sunroof is fully opened, then continue holding for 10 seconds to complete the sunroof position reset operation. Additional tips: Avoid using the sunroof on bumpy roads to prevent damage to the sunroof and slide rail components due to vibration. Do not open the sunroof during rain or when washing the vehicle to prevent moisture or water droplets from causing the rubber seals and metal parts inside the sunroof to age and rust. If you want to open the sunroof after a rainy day, make sure to dry the water droplets on the roof before opening it.

What are the common issues with the 2012 Veloster?

The common issues with the 2012 Veloster are the overly stiff suspension and interior rattling on bumpy roads. Below are the shortcomings of the Veloster: 1. The space performance is acceptable. According to tests, front-row passengers around 180 cm tall won't feel too cramped. The main drawback is the rear row, which only has two seats. The middle seat is a cup holder and cannot be used for sitting. Additionally, due to the car's body design, taller passengers in the rear row may feel quite cramped. 2. The Veloster's comfort is subpar. The front row is somewhat acceptable, but the rear row is not very friendly, especially for families of four. The rear row's space, suspension, and comfort are all lacking, though it can manage short trips.
