The reasons why the car air conditioning stops cooling after running for a while are: 1. Clogged receiver-drier; 2. Faulty component in the air conditioning system; 3. Excessive refrigerant in the car air conditioning system; 4. Excessive moisture in the dryer; 5. Excessive dust on the filter screen; 6. Aging or loose belt; 7. Blocked air ducts or dirty air conditioning pipes; 8. Compressor failure. Solutions for the car air conditioning stopping cooling after running for a while include: 1. Timely replacement of the air conditioning receiver-drier and replenishment of coolant; 2. Cleaning the filter screen; 3. Checking the pipelines and air conditioning pump in the car air conditioning system for damage; 4. Inspecting the compressor.

I've been repairing cars for over 20 years and often encounter situations where the AC stops cooling after running for a while. Insufficient refrigerant is a major issue—either it's leaking or depleted, requiring leak detection and recharge. When the cabin air filter gets clogged with dirt, airflow gets blocked just like having a stuffy nose. If the condenser is covered with bugs and leaves, it's like wrapping a blanket around a refrigerator, making heat dissipation impossible. Another common problem is a loose or broken compressor belt that prevents proper operation. Electrical issues are also frequent, such as malfunctioning temperature sensors sending wrong signals. My advice is to first rinse the radiator front, replace the air filter, and if that doesn't work, use pressure gauges to check refrigerant levels. Professional diagnosis is far better than random guesses—don't wait until complete failure when major repairs become costly.

What is the length of a B2 large vehicle in meters?

The length of a B2 large vehicle is 9 meters. Vehicle types permitted with a B2 license: A B2 driver's license allows the holder to operate heavy-duty, medium-duty cargo trucks or large, heavy, and medium-sized specialized operation vehicles. Heavy-duty and medium-duty cargo trucks are primarily trucks, such as the large dump trucks commonly seen on roads, which fall under the category of heavy-duty trucks. Large, heavy, and medium-sized specialized operation vehicles refer to vehicles equipped with special equipment or devices, such as water sprinklers, concrete mixer trucks, fire trucks, etc. Other vehicle types permitted with a B2 license: These include C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed cargo vehicles), C4 (three-wheeled vehicles), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery).

What Causes Jerking When Downshifting a Manual Transmission?

There are two main reasons for experiencing jerking when downshifting a manual transmission: Jerking during deceleration coasting: When coasting, gearshift jerking occurs because the transmission gear and vehicle speed are mismatched. If the vehicle speed is too high but the transmission is in too low a gear, the engine RPM changes significantly during downshifting, which easily causes the vehicle to jerk. Jerking when downshifting for overtaking acceleration: When accelerating to overtake, it's essential to remember to downshift—this is a fundamental skill. The purpose is to increase engine RPM before accelerating. Higher engine RPM means greater potential torque output from the engine. The deeper the driver presses the accelerator pedal, the more air intake and fuel injection occur, resulting in greater engine torque output and naturally enhancing the vehicle's acceleration potential.

What is the difference in ground clearance between urban SUVs and sedans?

Urban SUVs and sedans generally have a ground clearance difference of 30-40mm. Impact of minimum ground clearance: The greater the minimum ground clearance, the stronger the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven ground, but the higher the center of gravity, which reduces stability; the smaller the minimum ground clearance, the weaker the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven ground, but the lower the center of gravity, which can increase stability. Design of minimum ground clearance: The design of minimum ground clearance must consider the passability of loading and unloading platforms during transportation, as well as the possibility that sedans will not scrape when approaching the edge of sidewalks. If the vehicle is restricted to sales in a specific country or region, local road quality must also be considered. At the same time, the value of minimum ground clearance has certain limitations, as it is related to vehicle function and aerodynamics. For example, sports cars have relatively small minimum ground clearance, while SUVs have relatively large minimum ground clearance.

Are there colored car covers?

There are colored car covers, but changing the body color cannot pass the annual inspection. The following are the procedures required for changing the color of a car: Required procedures: Color change application, vehicle model information, motor vehicle registration certificate, vehicle license, original and copy of the owner's ID card. Pay off any fines before changing the vehicle color. The registration procedure for changing the body color requires modifying the original vehicle registration information and replacing the original vehicle license, which is equivalent to registering a new vehicle again. Cars allowed for color change: Not all cars are allowed to change color; only domestic cars can, while imported cars are prohibited from changing color. When repainting to change color, avoid using the same color as special vehicles, and do not add or modify exterior parts. It is important to have the color changed at a car beauty and repair enterprise with national qualifications to pass the verification.

Can Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles Be Refueled?

Plug-in hybrids can be refueled, but it is recommended to use the pure electric mode first, followed by the fuel mode. Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV): It is a type of new energy vehicle that falls between pure electric vehicles and traditional fuel vehicles. It has both the conventional car's engine, transmission, drivetrain, fuel system, and fuel tank, as well as the pure electric vehicle's battery, electric motor, control circuit, and a larger battery capacity with a charging port. Advantages of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles: They combine the benefits of pure electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), enabling both pure electric, zero-emission driving and extending the vehicle's range through hybrid mode.

Does the score reset when renewing an expired license?

Renewing an expired driver's license does not reset the penalty points. The clearance of penalty points is calculated based on the driver's license scoring cycle, not on whether the license is renewed. License renewal and inspection must meet the following conditions: Holders of large passenger vehicle, tractor, city bus, medium passenger vehicle, or large truck driver's licenses must have no penalty points in the current scoring cycle, or holders of other types of driver's licenses must have fewer than 12 penalty points in the current scoring cycle; Holders of large passenger vehicle, tractor, city bus, medium passenger vehicle, or large truck driver's licenses who have penalty points in a scoring cycle, as well as holders of other types of driver's licenses involved in traffic accidents resulting in death and bearing equal or greater responsibility without having their driver's licenses revoked, must have completed the inspection education; The applicant must have no pending road traffic safety violations or traffic accidents; The applicant's physical condition must meet the driving permit requirements; The driver's license must not be seized, detained, suspended, revoked, canceled, or annulled by law.
