    Just had the system evacuated, orifice tube replaced, sucked down and filled to spec as I was experiencing the same problems before I did. Pic of gauges in 98 degree heat. Problem only happens on long trips.

    AC air vent block issue!!!

    Can you recommend one to get or link me to a known good one? Ive been debating getting one. Ive heard that there is a seperate sd card for GM trucks in order to read ones like the Tahoe. Also, im sure the learning curve will slow the process down.

    AC air vent block issue!!!

    Thanks again. As much as I hate stealerships, I think i'm going to bite the the bullet and get the dealer to do a diagnostic check for $110. At least then ill have a leg to stand on and I can plan my attack.
