Dash a/c not cool enough...
Hi all, I have a 2002 Phaeton DP, and the dash air has never been cold...only mildly cool. I know that is subjective, but for a comparison, the a/c in my 2009 Ford F-150 runs twice as cool as the P...

I only have experience with my coach, a 1999 holiday rambler endeavor. Mine has the 5.9 24 valve cummins. I picked up the coach in august of 2014 and the air has always worked. It does blow cold and fairly hard, but I don't think you'll ever be satisfied if you're comparing it to a newer pickup truck.
The truck has a lot less room to cool, the DP has such a vast area to cool that you'll need to run the genny and roof airs to keep it cool in there if it gets up to 80 or 90 degrees. I had another gas coach with the 454 that I was dead set on getting it working properly.
I spent about $300 on new hoses, evaporator, condensor, etc. and got it charged. It did blow cold, and was a little helpful but still had to run the genny and roof air to keep it reasonable in there. Hope this helps.
