A/C Repair Service for Your Mitsubishi Montero Sport

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Mitsubishi Montero Sport A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Mitsubishi vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2000 Mitsubishi A/C systems. Bring your Mitsubishi Montero Sport to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. If any signs point to a possible leak, we’ll send a special U/V dye through the system, or use something called a “sniffer.” A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Mitsubishi Montero Sport 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.

Montero Sport A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Mitsubishi guidelines. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport A/C recharges.

Common Mitsubishi Montero Sport A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Mitsubishi Montero Sport A/C problem you may encounter. Typical A/C problems also include weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm 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 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Montero Sport.

Questions About 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Montero Sport air conditioner 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 Montero Sport A/C blowing hot air? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your Montero Sport’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  •  Does running the A/C in my Montero Sport use gasoline? While your vehicle’s A/C system doesn’t directly use fuel, it does draw power from the engine, which can impact the fuel consumption of your Montero Sport.
  • What can cause the A/C in my Montero Sport to smell like vinegar? It’s easy for moisture to accumulate in your car’s air conditioning system, which can cause microorganisms like bacteria to grow. In turn, this bacteria growth can cause the A/C in your Montero Sport to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Montero Sport’s A/C to work? Damaged or worn components in your Montero Sport’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
