I have a '97 Sportage that runs perfectly except for one thing. The AC wont get cold in hot weather. It gets freezing cold when the temp outside drops to around 20deg C. Above this it gets weaker and weaker until at 35deg C it just wont cool.
I have had the AC unit checked and the report was that it is all OK, but its not! Can a bigger better compressor be fitted to the engine? Is the condenser too small in this mode?
What can I have fitted that will get the interior of the car cool or better yet, get cold?
Is it a big job to change over to a more efficient AC unit?
