Yeah came here as I always do usually someone that knows something as paying a shop isn’t in her budget for purchasing a car right now unfortunately

4WD does not slip. Maybe the transmission is slipping. RUN AWAY from this DOG.

I have a 2003 Mitsubishi the air sometime works and then it will quit, but then it will start working again. The fan works, but. So I was going to start with putting refrigerant in first. How many cans would it take? And would this cause a sound of a belt being loose

I bought my 2003 Montero Sport in 2006. I did a lot of research after I bought it, (of course). I still love it, 14 yrs later. I learned early on the transmissions slips at low speeds, mine usually at 20 and below. I still drive mine, and it still slips at low speed through my neighborhood, but still no problems either.
