I have a 01 Cherokee with 95500 miles, My AC blows cold for about 10 minutes or so and then begins blowing wam (outside temp ) air. I have had 3 different mechanics work on it and none can figure out what is wrong with it

This is what has been checked so far:
1. Checked for leaks, none found(includes beiing camera snaked)
2. Oriface tube/filter were replaced

3. float valve replaced

4. relay replaced

It still continues to blow cold for only about 10 minutes and then only warm ai comes out,

Please help Oklahoma is damn hot

Hello,

Ok, have they check to make sure the Blend Doors are Operating properly.

Also I am not sure of the ratio but I know that for every so much of atmospheric air it reduces the efficience of the A/C.

So, do you know if they put a vacuum on the system after each repair to remove all air in the system then charge it.

I have the exact same issue with my truck. I brought it to a very good mechanic and he told me the compressor is going and should be replaced. He said when it gets hot it fails and disengages the clutch. I ordered the parts but am at odds of replacing it. How did you make out?
