Default 08 AC problems

So for the last few months the AC hasn't been as cold as it once was.

Started with just the compressor control valve = $40, easy R&R, was colder, for about a month then worse than before.

So I just changed the compressor, condensor, expansion valve & drier/acculmater parts. Added some pag 46, another 2.38# of 134A & presto, Ice cole 40F air, well for 5 min until I got a SSN. Scanguage shows 1 DTC = dtc 9342, I can't recall the formula to convert to a real code, is it just B9342?
If so, no results on Google.

So now back to blowing 50F air; but atlest it seems the batt is getting cool, the Tav dropped from 82 to 72 while I doing a 10min test drive.


On an (un)related note; SOC has been low lately too. It's mostly the wife's car so I rarely get to drive it; but I've noticed when I do, & it's sat in the garage for more than a day or 2 SOC is very low like
