Hello all. I have recently joined the problem to research an A/C problem that I am having with my 2000 4runner.
Diagnosis:
The air stream is rather weak compared to newer cars, but mostly, the air never cools down. I recently recharged with a diy kit from advanced auto, and after a month, it stopped cooling. I went to see if it needed another recharging, but when I hooked up the kit, It read that the pressure was even higher than when I recharged it previously. I had intially filled to the recommened amount, and just yesterday, my low pressure side read a pressure 50% higher. I'm not sure if this is making any sense, but if someone could point me in the right direction for some basic info on how to fix it diy or just to get some general knowledge before I brought it in to the dealership.
Thanks for all of your help.
