Working on a friend's VW Golf.
About a year ago, her AC needed a little bit of a top off on the AC. That went fine and worked great until a week or two ago. We assumed it had lost a bit and would probably need another top off.
Well she brought it over and with the engine running (at both idle and at about 1500 RPMs) I was seeing ~90 PSI on the low side and ~150 on the high side. When the car turned off, the pressure went up, but that kind of makes sense as the lines were heat-soaked from driving.
Any ideas on where to go from here? She's a partially-disabled widow, so money is always kind of tight; hoping there could be something not too expensive I'm missing.
