The reasons why the air conditioning in the Magotan car is not cooling: 1. Lack of refrigerant: There may be micro-leakage in the air conditioning pipeline or condenser. 2. Clogged air filter: Over time, the air filter becomes clogged, greatly reducing the effectiveness of the air conditioning. 3. Loose air conditioning compressor belt: When the compressor is working, it may slip, causing a decrease in transmission efficiency, reducing the compressor speed, and decreasing the delivery of refrigerant, resulting in the car air conditioning not cooling. 4. Moisture infiltration in the air conditioning refrigeration system: This causes the water in the coolant to freeze in small holes, obstructing the smooth flow of refrigerant, increasing resistance, or completely stopping the flow.

When my Magotan's air conditioning isn't cooling properly, it's really frustrating, especially since I've encountered similar issues several times over the years of driving. The most common cause is insufficient refrigerant, possibly due to leaks, resulting in inadequate cooling. Another key factor is a clogged cabin air filter, located behind the glove box – if not replaced for a long time, it accumulates dust, reducing airflow and cooling efficiency. Problems with the fan or compressor could also be at fault; if the fan isn't spinning or the compressor is making unusual noises, cooling performance drops. Last time at the repair shop, the mechanic used a pressure gauge to check the refrigerant and found low pressure – after topping it up, the AC worked perfectly again. I recommend starting with simple solutions like replacing the filter first, then moving to professional diagnostics if needed. Don't ignore it, as it affects comfort and increases fuel consumption.

As someone who frequently repairs cars, the most common reason I see for the Magotan's air conditioning not being cold is insufficient or leaking refrigerant. The compressor not working properly or the condenser surface being dirty and not dissipating heat well can also lead to insufficient cooling. A dirty filter blocking the air vent can also reduce airflow. Try checking if there's sufficient airflow from the air conditioning vents; if it's weak, you may need to clean the filter. Don't attempt to handle the refrigerant yourself as it can easily damage parts—it's best to take the car to a shop to measure the pressure with the right tools. Don't delay repairs for too long, as the compressor working inefficiently for extended periods can fail faster and increase repair costs. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the external heat dissipation fins, can prevent many issues.

How to Deal with Foggy Windows in a Car?

To handle foggy windows in a car, you can follow these methods: 1. Open the windows to create air convection between the inside and outside of the car, which will reduce the temperature difference and make the fog disappear; 2. Turn on the car's defogging function, and select the appropriate cold or warm air from the air conditioner to use the air blown by the air conditioner to defog. The steps to turn on the defogging function are: 1. Open the driver's door; 2. Press the car's brake pedal to start the engine; 3. Press the car's one-touch start button; 4. All the dashboard lights will turn on, indicating that the engine has started; 5. Press the defogging button located on the center console.

What is the difference between the internal and external circulation of a car's air conditioning system?

Car air conditioning internal and external circulation mainly differ in the following aspects: 1. Different states. Internal circulation mode closes the airflow channel between the inside and outside of the vehicle. Without the fan, there is no airflow circulation, and when the fan is on, the inhaled airflow only comes from inside the vehicle, forming an internal airflow circulation. External circulation mode uses the fan to draw air from outside the vehicle into the cabin, allowing air to flow between the outside and inside. The air blown by the fan comes from outside, and even without the fan, airflow is still drawn into the cabin while driving. 2. Different functions. Internal circulation primarily prevents external dust and harmful gases from entering the cabin promptly and effectively, such as when driving through smoke, dust, areas with strong odors, or in heavy traffic, blocking harmful exhaust emissions from vehicles ahead. External circulation allows for breathing fresh air from outside the vehicle.

What Causes the Abnormal Noise When Shifting Gears in an Automatic Transmission?

Automatic transmission shifting produces abnormal noise due to the following reasons: 1. The release bearing lacks lubricant, causing dry friction or bearing damage. 2. There is no clearance between the release bearing and the inner end of the release lever. 3. Severe oil contamination or dust accumulation between the release bearing sleeve and the guide tube, or fatigue, breakage, or detachment of the release bearing return spring and pedal return spring, resulting in poor return of the release bearing. 4. Loose fit between the spline hole of the driven plate and its spline shaft. 5. Annealing, fatigue, or breakage of the driven plate damping springs. 6. Loose rivets or exposed rivet heads on the driven plate friction disc. 7. Wear and looseness of the drive pins of the double-disc clutch and the pin holes in the intermediate pressure plate and pressure plate.

What is the correct order for disconnecting car battery cables?

When disconnecting car battery cables, the correct order is to remove the negative terminal first, followed by the positive terminal. A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of electrochemical cell that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. Typically, what people refer to as a car battery is a lead-acid battery, which consists of lead and its oxides with sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte. The functions of a car battery include: 1. Providing a powerful starting current to the starter motor when starting the engine; 2. Assisting the alternator in powering electrical equipment when the generator is overloaded; 3. Supplying power to electrical devices when the engine is idling; 4. Protecting the vehicle's electrical appliances; 5. Converting part of the electrical energy into chemical energy for storage (charging) when the generator's terminal voltage exceeds the electromotive force of the lead-acid battery.

Where is the windshield washer fluid added in a Changan car?

Windshield washer fluid is located at the left edge of the engine compartment. The method of adding windshield washer fluid is very simple, and car owners can do it themselves. In northern regions, antifreeze-type windshield washer fluid should be selected, while in southern regions, windshield washer fluid with added insecticide components can be used. The refill capacity for Changan CS35 windshield washer fluid is 3.3L, and the washer fluid tank capacity is approximately 3.8L. After opening the hood, you need to locate the windshield washer fluid reservoir. Most cars have a universal indicator symbol on the washer fluid reservoir cap, which is the same for all vehicles globally. Simply open the reservoir cap to add the windshield washer fluid. Generally, about 2 liters need to be added. There is a dipstick inside the reservoir; add the fluid while checking the level, and stop when it reaches the marked line to avoid overflow and unnecessary waste.

What does it mean when a wrench light appears on the car's display panel?

The small wrench is a maintenance indicator light, reminding the driver that the vehicle requires servicing, not indicating a malfunction. It is a very user-friendly design feature that typically appears during the key-turn self-check. After maintenance, simply reset this reminder. Below is relevant information about vehicle maintenance: 1. Vehicle maintenance refers to the periodic preventive work of inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain components of the vehicle, also known as vehicle servicing. 2. Modern vehicle maintenance primarily covers the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, and more. 3. The purpose of vehicle maintenance is to keep the vehicle clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate potential hazards, prevent malfunctions, slow down deterioration, and extend the service life.
