Q: My A/C doesn't get very cold
I am having trouble with my A/C. I live in Wisconsin so we have nice weather, but after the car has been sitting in the parking lot all day, the A/C doesn't seem to work very well. I have tried setting it to max A/C, changing the air vents, putting the windows down to let the hot air out, etc. and it doesn't seem to be getting cold enough. I have the electronics package on the car, and I set the temp at 60 ( the lowest it can be set at). How can I make the A/C get colder?
