Any suggestion about the A/C compressor? I tried charging it and it's full; but, it still blows out hot air. I hear the temp door actuator work.

Is the belt on the compressor properly and tight enough? With the engine off and key ON, when you turn the A/C on, do you hear the compressor clutch click? With the engine running, does the compressor clutch engages and turn? Does the clutch engages and disengage often? If it does engage and disengage often, you likely have a coolant leak and are low on oil and coolant. Unless you know what you're doing, have it checked out by a reputable A/C repair shop or the dealer. You can replace parts yourself to save on labor, but have an A/C shop evacuate your system before repairs and refill it afterwards. They'll usually charge around $30-50 to just purge and fill.
