I had my compressor and condenser replaced in Jan/Feb timeframe. Haven't really needed it much since then till lately. Seemed to be not quite cool enough, so I put a set of gauges on it and pressures looked a little low at 85 degrees outside air. Was about 45/175 pressures. I added a can of 143a and the pressures went to 50/210 or so. I think it was better, but today it was about 95 degrees. Vent temps are somewhere in the mid 50s, I put the gauges back on and pressures were still about 50/210 at near 95 degrees agter running for 30 min driving.
Does this seem a little too warm at the vent? I think the 2010 is an orifice tube system, not a TXV. I have some experience with home HVAC, but I don't think you use superheat/subcooling numbers to fill auto units, right? Too many variables in heat load, compressor speeds, fan speeds, etc., correct?
Maybe that is all it can do at 95 degrees out, but my wife's Hyundai will freeze you out.
Thanks.
