Is it only my ep or everyones when the car is moving the ac cools but when its not it throws out the air the temperature thats outside? i recently replaced the ac compressor and drier. We also put dye in the system am fixed every leak we saw with the uv light. Any thought on what it could be?

Hook up the gauges and verify the charge pressure, replace the cabin filters and check the recirculation vents are not obstructed. Can't really think of anything outside that, but I am no a/c specialist by any stretch. I have noticed that with this crazy hot summer at idle the cold air coming out of the vents is not so cold. Not too uncomfortable, but noticeable.

yea i changed my cabin air filters already. Am going to check the gauges soon but when i start moving the vents start making a hiss sound like if the freon just entered.

Hook up the gauges and see the pressures. Make sure both fan motors come on, did you also change the expansion valve? My car tends to cool better when its moving and not so much when it is stopped and I changed compressor, dryer, expansion valve, leak tested, lines flushed, filters are new, and radiator fan motor replaced.

I experience the same situation. I have changed everything that ties to the ac. Still had the same situation as before so I went back to old and sold the almost new parts since I didn't feel change. Then again I live in the desert of Phoenix!

pressures where fine the fans are fines. Tomorrow we are going to flush the system and change the expansion valve hopefully it works -_-

If I had it apart now I would also replace the evaporator since it is hooked to the expansion valve anyway you might consider that.
