G,day mate. Did you buy this car used? I ask this because it shouldn't be having this issue due to the age of the car. Unless has it been in an accident or the system didn't get enough compressor oil from new? A/C gas pressure may be too low or too high. It may have a faulty valve or minor leak? I'd advise taking it to an auto electrician,A/C specialist ask for the following. Vent outlet temp test. Leak test. And compressor check. Check and record high/low temps and pressures. Evac the system for 1 hr. Check vacuum leaks over 20mins. If all checks out and after necessary repairs made, top up compressor with 30ml of recommended oil. And regas the system via head pressure not capacity. Good luck mate.
