A/C Service for Mitsubishi Galant

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. “Who can fix my Mitsubishi Galant A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Mitsubishi vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1985 Mitsubishi Galant A/C systems. Steer your Mitsubishi Galant to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1985 Mitsubishi Galant A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test. If we suspect a leak, we’ll send a U/V dye through your A/C system or use a “sniffer” to find the leak. A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Mitsubishi Galant A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

A/C Recharge for Mitsubishi Galant

Let's say we repair your 1985 Mitsubishi Galant A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Mitsubishi guidelines. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re all set. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 1985 Mitsubishi Galant A/C recharges.

Other Mitsubishi Galant A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Mitsubishi Galant A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Typical A/C problems also include weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1985 Mitsubishi Galant? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Galant — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 1985 Mitsubishi Galant A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Galant air conditioning colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why is my Galant A/C blowing hot air? An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • What can cause an A/C system leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Galant’s A/C system naturally degrade. Moisture can get into the system and cause a malfunction, or parts can simply wear out so that your system no longer seals properly.
  • Does my Galant A/C use gas?  The air conditioning system in your Galant does not use gasoline directly as a fuel source, but it does require some power from the engine, which indirectly affects your car's fuel consumption.
  • What does it mean if the A/C in my Galant smells like vinegar? If the air conditioning in your Galant smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Galant’s A/C to work? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Galant is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
