I noticed aircon wasn't very cold (if at all) so I had it re-gassed as a first call.

It now seems coolish, but not cold - not a huge difference (maybe none?)

A/C compressor clutch kicks in fine, as do both radiator fans.

Any suggestions?

Cabin / pollen filter? Just did mine and it made the world of difference.

Could be a leak, or the compressor, or a blockage? (Or something else entirely!) Has the system been pressure tested? Has the compressor output pressure been checked? When was the drier last changed?

I've been carrying out a lot of A/C repairs this year, more than any year in my career!
