Mud on the inside of my jeep always sparks a good conversation with my passengers, just dont stick your head out the window i did the same thing to my brother over the summer, asked him to spot my right side, his head went out right as i fell into the rut lol. Sorry Im not really helping, guess consider this a free bump!

Same here. I had my AC charged two years ago and it needs it again. I was just going to buy a recharge kit at Auto Zone but after reading my service manual I decided I'll take it in.

Sounds like you need your AC recharged. I had to recharge mine last summer and it works perfectly now.

My dad who is an AC/Refridgeration tech used a vacuum pump to suck the lines out and then we recharged it.

I knew it needed recharged because the AC was blowing warm air.
I think I paid $75 to have it done.
