I've just repaired my car aircon (rusted pipe, big leak) and filled it
with one can of gas (to 31.5 PSI - although the instructions say it
should be 33-38). The compressor now spins (it didn't when empty), and
I can hear a load on the engine. However it's 8C outside and the air
blowing into the car I think is maybe slightly cooler, not sure. Should
it be able to cool 8C air any lower?


Is that one of the used cars you bought to avoid depreciation?


Repairing the aircon costs a lot less than the several grand people lose on a new car.
