Default A/c Problem 2000 Disco2

Hello Guys
I am new to this forum. I have a 2000 Disco2. The A/c is working just not blowing very cold. We put professional gauges on it and read Hi side and low side. low was around 60 and High was around 150. My mechanic friend said that it appeared that the 134a was not cirulating like it should. Told me that the oriface valve or expansion valve may me clocked up or filter needed cleaned. Where is this stuff located? Any help on this problem I do appreciate it. Thanks
Justin

Download the whole factory service manual, called the RAVE, in my signature. Could also be the drier. Your high side sounds low to me, and your low side seems high. Will most likely need to check for leaks, vac down and recover freon (don't vent it, a pro shop can get fined big time for that, not a good idea). Then refill.

generally you get line leaks in the front but you need make sure its got all the freon in it its supposed to have for the vehicle. that means if it has rear air it will have more. then add some dye and if its still warm then look at the numbers. if not then wait for the leaks.
