Can You Sleep in the Car with the Heater On in Winter?

It is not advisable to sleep in the car with the heater on in winter. Below is the working process of the car air conditioning system: 1. Compression Process: The compressor draws in low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas from the evaporator outlet and compresses it into high-temperature, high-pressure gas, which is then discharged from the compressor. 2. Heat Dissipation Process: The high-temperature, high-pressure superheated refrigerant gas enters the condenser. Due to the decrease in pressure and temperature, the refrigerant gas condenses into a liquid, releasing a significant amount of heat. 3. Throttling Process: The higher-temperature and higher-pressure refrigerant liquid passes through the expansion device, causing its volume to increase and its pressure and temperature to drop sharply. It is then discharged from the expansion device in a mist form (fine liquid droplets). 4. Heat Absorption Process: The mist-like refrigerant liquid enters the evaporator. Since the boiling point of the refrigerant is much lower than the temperature inside the evaporator, the refrigerant liquid evaporates into a gas. During this evaporation process, it absorbs a large amount of heat from the surroundings. The resulting low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant vapor then re-enters the compressor.

How to Determine if a Car Bearing is Faulty?

When the car is running, the wheels wobble and the overall vehicle vibration increases. Unusual noises may occur. Poor rolling can lead to a decrease in power. Here's how to check: 1. Increase speed: After increasing the speed (when the humming noise is louder), shift the gear to neutral and let the vehicle coast, observing whether the noise comes from the engine. If the humming noise remains unchanged during neutral coasting, it is likely a wheel bearing issue. 2. Temporary stop inspection: Get out and check the temperature of the wheel hubs. The method is: touch each of the four wheel hubs with your hand to roughly feel if their temperatures are consistent (under normal brake shoe and pad conditions, the front and rear wheel temperatures will differ, with the front wheels being slightly higher). If the temperature difference is not significant, you can continue driving slowly to the repair station. 3. Use a lift: Raise the car with a lift (after releasing the handbrake and shifting to neutral). If a lift is not available, use a jack to raise each wheel one by one. Manually rotate each of the four wheels quickly. When encountering a faulty axle, it will produce a distinct noise, completely different from the other axles. This method makes it easy to identify which axle has a problem.

Can the vehicle body cross the line in the S-curve of Subject 2?

Subject 2 S-curve does not allow the vehicle body to cross the line. Below is the relevant introduction to Subject 2: 1. Small vehicle test content: The test items include five mandatory tests—reverse parking, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as the S-curve) (some regions also include a sixth item, high-speed card collection). 2. Large vehicle test content: The test items include pole test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, passing a single-plank bridge, curve driving, right-angle turns, passing a width-restricted gate, passing continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, narrow road U-turns, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp turns on mountain roads, tunnels, rain (fog) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.

Where is the coolant filler port of the Elysion?

Open the engine compartment, and the container with the metal cap on the lower left is the radiator. Unscrew the radiator cap and fill in the coolant. Coolant prevents the freezing of the liquid in the cooling system during cold winter parking, which could otherwise cause the radiator to crack or damage the engine cylinder block or head. The method for replacing coolant is as follows: 1. Turn off the engine and wait for 10 minutes (because the water temperature of a recently turned-off car is high, and overflow could be dangerous); use a cloth to press down on the radiator cap, then gently open it. 2. Unscrew the drain valve at the bottom of the radiator (to drain the existing coolant from the radiator); if the engine has a cylinder block drain plug, remove it to drain any remaining coolant from the cylinder block. 3. When no more coolant flows out, tighten the drain valve and the cylinder block drain plug; open a new bottle of coolant; slowly pour the new coolant into the radiator up to the maximum mark. 4. Set the heater control knob to the heating position, start the engine until the radiator outlet hose becomes warm, then turn off the engine; check the coolant level (top up if the level has not reached the maximum mark); tighten the radiator cap; close the engine hood.

What to Do If You Can't Pass Subject 4?

If you can't pass Subject 4, you can retake the exam. Below are the contents of each subject: 1. Subject 1: Includes driving theory basics, local regulations, road safety laws and regulations, etc. The exam format for Subject 1 consists of 60 multiple-choice questions and 40 true/false questions, each worth one point, totaling 100 points, with a passing score of 90. 2. Subject 2: Test items include five mandatory components: reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves. 3. Subject 3: Comprises 16 test items: vehicle preparation, starting, driving straight, shifting gears, changing lanes, pulling over, driving straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting oncoming traffic, overtaking, making U-turns, and nighttime driving. 4. Subject 4: A safe and civilized driving test with a full score of 100 points and a passing score of 90. The test format for Subject 4 includes multiple-choice and true/false questions, with questions primarily presented in the form of case studies, images, animations, etc.

Should a left turn on an overpass be made before or after crossing the bridge?

A left turn on an overpass should be made after crossing the bridge. Here are some precautions to take when making turns while driving: 1. Wide turning radius: When making a left turn, try to turn as widely as possible. To avoid hazards such as obstruction or collision, aim to turn into a farther point. 2. Check the rearview mirror: Always check the rearview mirror before turning to ensure there is no one on the side or behind you before making the turn. 3. Watch for blind spots: Novice drivers often focus only on what's ahead or to the left, neglecting blind spots during turns, which can lead to hitting the curb or causing a scrape. Always check for obstacles below the rearview mirror, and if necessary, open the door to take a look before turning.
