Default Air Conditioning 2005 XJ8L

I have been on the forum for quite some time looking at the posts about air conditioning not working well when stopped in traffic. My car is experiencing the same problem. Freon was checked, pressures on both low and high sides are good. Radiator cooling fan is working as it should, high and low speed, no apparent leaks in the system, no blockage in the air flow through the radiator or condensor. Cools great at highway speeds, not so great sitting still. Any ideas?

Welcome to the forum NDW,

As you've done some research, I don't need to tell you where to find X350 section.

Post this tech question in X350 section with the checks you've done so far and I'm sure you'll get further advice. A/C fault codes could be info to look out for.

Remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User ID button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

Welcome to the forum,

Good to have you with us.
Excellent advice above, making your own thread is the best way to a solution.

If you haven't done so already you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.
