Default A/C not as cold anymore

Hey everyone,

I have the 05 V6 and just seems like there isnt anymore cold air coming out anymore. I've been thinking since the weather has been in the 90's lately that could have some effect on it but i dont know. Sometimes when i put it on the 1 or 2 setting for air it stays a little warm and then cools down but when i put it up to 3 or 4 then it gets warm. I'm not saying that its warm warm but its not ice cold either. The only way I can come close to explain it is that when your in a hot room and you turn on a fan and its not blowing super cold air because the air around is warm so its still warm but a little cooler....if that makes sense. Anyone know what i can do other than take it in? (not on warranty anymore)

i think you need a system vacuum and recharge. you need to take it in to a shop.

Mine gets ice cold when the car is in motion. When I am at stops, it is still cool but not cold. I'm sure my problem is compressor related.

thats pretty normal. the new refrigerants are not quite what they used to be in days of old. you wont get the same cooling at low rpm`s
