Did you have a professional recharge it for you and did you do it yourself?

since the recharge didn't work.. or worked for 2 days then went hot again.. you probably had a leak somewhere in your a/c system/lines.. you should take it to an A/C shop and have them pressure test/test for leaks... not sure if your warranty is still good.. you might want to take it to the dealer if it is..

I have to agree with GSRaCeRboI. It is likely a leak somewhere. Go back to the dealership and they will pump a dye into the system to locate your leak. Goodluck

Check your a/c line below the bumper. Mine was cracked probably due to a rock. Cost about $100 to fix it. Do a search, someone had the same problem before and another member even show a picture as where the line is.

the fan closer to the drivers side w/ that blue cap (A/C low line cap/line) is the A/C fan... and the fan w/ the radiator/coolant bottle is the radiator fan... I'm not sure but I think it cycles on and off depending on temperature .. maybe when you were looking at it.. your motor wasn't hot enough.. or maybe you have a malfunction not sure how its wired up....

I work for acura and can tell you that you have a leak somewhere, you will need to add freon and dye to your A/C system and then run a black light over everything to find out where the leak is. if you can't find a leak that way it could be your expansion valve.

it could have been me that had your same problem. Mine was a cracked suction line which did cost about $100 for just the line and another $25- $50 for labor.
