If the trucking industry followed the above, most of its problems would be solved. You would think it would be common logic but you'd be amazed how many companies don't get it. I had the chance to talk to the guy who owns my carrier the other day, I talked about pretty much the same thing and he...

Faulty expansion valves should have shown up when the earlier shops checked the pressures. The valve, sometimes called the block valve (block shaped) is where the liquid freon turns into gas (and makes cold happen!). If this valve fails it can fail open which would give you poor system...

Can you PM me with the last 8 of your VIN? This problem is driving me nuts and I want to do a bit of research.

As pointed out, the oil companies in Canada (which are all pretty much global/US owned) seemed to be able to convert the pumps up here to temp compensated in what seemed like a month. Sure we don't have as many pumps but they sell a lot less fuel up here. Betcha it gets rolled out in the US...
