Air Conditioning problem
2007 Honda Civic 4 cyl Automatic

i added r-134a, following directions on can. it seems like the a/c is worse now than before, also the pressure is less now than before. is it possible that the psi gauge on the can was faulty and i overfilled it? also since recharge the engine idles very rough with ac on and blows warm air while idling rough.

Hi cordaddy23,

Quite likely you have overfilled. Check if A/C compressor clutch is engaging and disengaging constantly to cause the engine to run rough.

Get the low and high pressure readings and let me know what they are.
