mcparadise thanks for your response, I failed to mention that it seems the air temp on the right side of the car feels slightly warmer than the left side vents when this happens. The expansion valve was replaced, and I will state what was typed on my invoice, “performed a/c perfomance test, ambiant temp @80 degrees. Duct temp @70degrees. Hooked up gauges and found low side pressure was 60psi and high side pressure at 120psi. Expansion valve stuck open. Need to replace expansion valve, evacuate and recharge system.” This was done, unfortunately we had a cold front come through as this was being performed and the outside ambiant temp dropped into the upper 40’s and the tech was unable to check if this worked. Yesterday it was back into the mid-80’s and could tell that it didnt. I am dropping the car back off tonight to have it looked at tommorow, tommorow in D/FW it is supposed to be 65 degrees so we will see.
