A/C not blowing cold

It's blowing like the vent is on. Already checked the fuses and that's not it. Maybe it just needs a charge?

Checking the refrigerant charge would be the first step. Our condensors are a bit exposed to road damage (stones, bolts, etc.)on our redlines (Its the first exposed item behind our grill)

I just resolved to open the windows...oddly since I got stage 2 the a/c works kind of cruddy...still works though, just not ice cold.

I have to say...the faux 2.4 redline in storm grey looks pretty good but it's still lame.

checking pressures of the hi suction and discharged lines would be first, also I'd check the condensor as staed above, if that checks out, could easily be it need charged. Do you use your a/c at all in the winter? This helps keep seals lubed and prevent leaking of refrigerant best as possible.

Ding ding ding ding ding. Driving from TX to TN I caught two rocks in the condenser. Figured that out when I went to charge it and freon was shooting out all over the place. I already tried some JB weld and sealnt to temporaraily fix it but it's a no go. I'll just have to ride back without A/C. At least the car still runs, I guess.
