Might be Harder than I Expected

AC Blows Warm Air with Hissing Sound

Ford Focus 2012 Studio, manual, UK version.

The AC only blows warm/hot air. The dealer told me it probably just needed the refrigerant refilling.

I bought an R134a refill kit with a pressure gauge. When I first connected it to the low-pressure port, the gauge was reading nearly 0. I gradually added R134a until the needle reached the green section of the gauge.

However, there was no noticeable improvement. The AC still blows warm air, and it has now started making a hissing sound whenever the AC is switched on.

When I turn the AC on, I can hear the compressor click and then hissing sound starts. I also checked the low-pressure pipe while the AC was running, but it doesn't feel cold at all.

Note: The hissing sound is louder than it shows in the video.

What could be the problem here?

Edit: the compressor only clicks once at the start

I Just Passed My CBT (second attempt), And I Have a Question

As the title says, I passed my CBT on my second attempt. I’m a completely new rider and had never ridden a motorcycle before, so failing my first CBT was a huge learning experience for me.

My second attempt went much more smoothly, although I still found it quite difficult.

For someone in my position, are Module 1 and Module 2 easier than doing the CBT as a complete beginner? I want to start Module 1 training and get it done as soon as possible, but I’m worried it could take a lot of lessons, time and money before I’m ready to pass.

Knowing whether it feels easier or harder than the CBT would help me decide when to start training.

I’m assuming Module 1 might be easier because it’s a fixed set of exercises that you can practise repeatedly until you’re confident with them.

PC Black Screen & No Signal Issue, Need Help Identifying the Problem

My friend has been having an issue with his PC

When he turns it on, one of two things happens, either the screen shows 'No Signal' while the PC stays running (fans and RGB) with CPU light on the motherboard or it briefly shows 'No Signal' and then boots normally

Even when it manages to boot into Windows, it only stays on for a few minutes before the screen turns black and shows 'No Signal' again with the CPU light coming back on

We tested it in the BIOS and left it there for around 30 minutes with no issues at all, It stays on perfectly in the BIOS but it seems unable to handle Windows

We then started troubleshooting the hardware

First, we tested the GPU, We connected the DisplayPort cable directly to the motherboard, but the same thing happened, It stayed on for a few seconds and then showed 'No Signal'. We also tried another cable (HDMI 2.0), same issue

We then tested the RAM by removing one stick, trying the other stick in different slots, switching the sticks around and testing different combinations. Nothing changed

At that point, we thought it had to be either the CPU or the motherboard. He contacted the warranty provider, and they replaced the CPU with a brand new one, however, after installing it, the PC stayed on for a few minutes before showing the exact same 'No Signal' issue again

We have also updated the BIOS, updated all drivers and reinstalled Windows, but the problem is still there

We are now almost certain that the motherboard is causing the issue but we are not completely sure. Has anyone experienced anything similar?

I decided to make this post to see if anyone has dealt with the same issue and can help us cut the losses

PC Specs:
CPU: Ryzen 7 9800X3D

GPU: MSI Inspire 3X RTX 5070 Ti

RAM: second hand TEAMGROUP 5200Mhz 32Gb

Motherboard: Gigabyte X870 Gaming X WiFi

PSU: Corsair RM850x Gold

Main Boot Drive: Acer Predator GM9 2TB Gen 5

CBT humbled my over confident arse

I failed my first CBT training. I wasn’t allowed on the road because I missed the emergency stop and U turn practice with the others while I was still trying to figure out how the clutch worked

I’ve been obsessed with motorcycles for the last decade and have watched countless videos over the years, I thought a 125cc would be a joke, especially since I have cycling experience… but wow was I wrong

I dropped the bike on my first interaction with it, It felt so much heavier than I expected I almost crashed 3 times in the first hour, the throttle felt way more powerful than I thought and I could barely control it, I was genuinely terrified, I even struggled to find the gear shifter lol

My plan was to buy a 600cc sport bike as soon as I got my full licence but after today, I actually started thinking maybe I should get a 50cc first lmao

Definitely learnt a tough lesson here, watching something is nothing like actually doing it. Professionals make it look easy. Don’t overestimate yourself, and always keep realistic expectations.

I’m not upset at all. I’m just happy I finally got to ride a motorcycle for the first time in my life, and I’m already looking forward to my next CBT.
