Car heater suddenly stops blowing air due to the following reasons: 1. Blower motor failure; 2. Blower fuse blown or air conditioning system control fuse blown; 3. Blocked air conditioning ducts; 4. Cabin air filter malfunction; 5. Thermostat detection failure; 6. Air conditioning circuit issues; 7. Coolant temperature sensor, thermostat, or water pump circulation damage. The working principle of a car heater involves using the engine's coolant, which flows through a heater core. The blower then forces cold air over the heated core to warm the air, thereby increasing the cabin temperature. A car air conditioning system refers to the climate control device installed in vehicles, capable of cooling, heating, ventilating, and purifying the cabin air. It provides passengers with a comfortable environment, reduces driver fatigue, and enhances driving safety.

Civic 0-100 Acceleration: Use L Gear or S Gear?

Civic 0-100 acceleration should use S gear. S gear is the sport mode of the transmission, while L gear is the low gear mode of the transmission. Other gears include: 1. P is the parking gear. When parking the car, the gear selector must be shifted into P position; 2. N is the neutral gear, which can be used when starting, parking without leaving the car, or when towing; 3. D is the drive gear. During normal driving, place the gear selector in D position, and the car will automatically shift between forward gears. Taking the Civic 2021 HATCHBACK 220TURBO Driving Fun Control as an example: its length, width, and height are 4517mm, 1799mm, and 1434mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. It is equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission and the body type is a 5-door, 5-seat hatchback.

Do new cars need to idle for a while before driving?

New cars need to idle for a while before driving, as cold engines require preheating. Reasons for warming up the car: The main reason for warming up the car is that after prolonged parking, the engine oil flows back into the oil pan at the bottom of the engine. Therefore, warming up is essential. The correct method for warming up is to start driving after 30 seconds to one minute of idling, but avoid high-speed driving at this time. Maintain a low speed with the engine speed not exceeding 3,000-3,500 RPM, generally keeping it around 2,000 RPM. Consequences of not warming up the car: In winter, when temperatures are low, most of the engine oil settles at the bottom of the engine. If you suddenly start driving, the oil pump cannot immediately lubricate the entire engine with all the lubricating oil, which can cause damage to engine components.

What's the reason for engine water shortage without visible leakage?

The reasons for engine water shortage without visible leakage are: 1. Cracks in the engine's water passages, causing coolant to enter the combustion chamber. If the engine burns coolant, white smoke will come out of the exhaust pipe. White smoke during hot weather indicates serious coolant burning; 2. The engine temperature becomes too high during operation, causing coolant to evaporate as steam; 3. Coolant leakage occurs in hidden locations that the owner hasn't noticed. The solution for engine water shortage without visible leakage is: Immediate inspection and repair at a 4S shop or repair shop is needed. If the cylinder block has cracks causing coolant to enter the combustion chamber, a new cylinder block needs to be replaced.

The further the letter is in the alphabet, the higher the quality grade of the oil. There are two main criteria for selecting the quality grade of engine oil lubricants: one is based on the combined mechanical and thermal load of the car engine, represented by the intensification coefficient; the other is based on the severity of the engine operating conditions. Engine oil is a substance enhanced with additives in base oil, mainly containing anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade oil viscosity index improvers.
