I wouldn't recommend it unless you know what you're doing. I would check the readings and make sure everything is in spec. If you overfill the system, it's going to blow warm air instead of cold air.

Anyways, the tc takes forever to cool down.

yea the tc takes for ever to get cold when you turn the ac on. but i dont know if anyone else does this, but i have come to find out in mine at least if you turn the ac on and also turn the recirculate or whatever this button is called right under the ac button, mine gets alot colder to where i have to actually turn it down lol, guess it recirculates the cold air already in the car and makes it colder?, not sure, but you should give this a try might work for you....

I don't think I ever turned my air conditioning on since I bought the car 2-3 years ago.

I don't like having my sunroof open on a very sunny day. My face would cook in that sunlight.

Mine seems to work fine. Turn the temp dial to the coldest, raise fan to max and then max sure AC has an orange light

sure if you could trust those gauges that are on those cheapie refill kits, otherwise if you overfill your system you will need a professional to evacuate (Remove) it all again and fill it.

might want to try a local shop to evacuate your system, pressure test it and refill it up. I've noticed that the tC after a couple of years need to be "topped up" to be really cold. I never saw that on the old R-12 systems (freon) but the newer stuff we're using now seems to need a top up every 3 years or so.. but i'd trust a pro's a/c machine to fill it instead of a cheapie fill at walmart. just my $0.02
