    What kind of issue did he have when trying to refill your system?

    Well first off that vac pump didn't totally vac everything out of the ac system. Then when he went to charge it he couldn't get the exact amount of freon back in the system to the proper specs. It ended up getting a hair over charged while led to an idling issue. The dealer vacc'd the system for me and put in the proper amount of freon and it fixed the idle issue

    Yeah I can see how that'd be an issue. The professional units are setup to put exactly the amount of freon needed back in the system.

    Exactly. And our XK's don't like it when the system is under/over charged!
