yeah maybe time for a new ac dryer/reciver... it is a tear and wear part.. i used to have the same problem that my ac wasnt cold enough after had it evacuated and recharged by a shop...and then i couldnt stand the heat no more so i replaced a new dryer/reciver and ac is as cold as new again..

it is the silver can sitting right behind the driver side headlight.. 2 10 mm to unbolt the bracket and 2 10mm ac lines bolts.. and pull it up... but before u do that..i forgot to ask u to check on the tension of your ac belt..

once u take it apart..u will have to get the whole ac system evacuate and recharged by a shop cause ac system wont engage if the ac system is not pressurized.. check the tensio on your ac belt..
and also what year is your ac sysem and your car?
