Just got the AC recharged, still not blowing cold. Cool air, but not cold. :(
Maybe the compressor or the blend motor/distribution flap is bad.

Got any tips?

Check the aircon pipes under the bonnet, one should be very hot the other freezing cold. If they are OK could be a blend motor problem, I'm assuming it's a P38. If the cold pipe is not very cold, check the electric fans work and that the condensor is not full of crap stopping the airflow.

You are correct its a p38.
I'll start with that, i have moved the trans oil cooler in front of the ac condencer.
Never heard the fans turning on tho.
 
If the AC pipes are properly hot & cold, also check the Aspirator fan next to the clock, plus the Evaporator & Heater Core sensors.

Evap sensor is pushed into the right side of the heater box near the bulkhead. Heater core sensor is clipped onto one of the coolant pipes.

If blend motors are working & AC pipe is properly cold, sensor issues can cause the HEVAC to adjust incorrectly.
 
Good luck with the air condition!

I just used my lunch break to fix the rear bumper cover. The new exhaust gets hot, and it almost melted the olastic cover, enough for it to come loose at the clued / pressed in metal bits that screw on to the bracket on the bumper. Used some strong two component clue to clue it back on, the new clips, well, the bumper cover doesn't really snap into those. We'll see if it holds, wouldn't be the first one I loose somewhere!

Also studied the workshop manual. No mention of full harness replacements, but stripping the interior down enough to get access seems easy enough. Already all of that twice, with the exception of the top dashboard and instruments. Comes next once the carpets are all in, and the interior doesn't serve as a storage for assorted parts anymore!
 
@iSanttu Might be worth putting this AC issue into a separate thread. Do you know if they used the correct quantity of R134a ?
