    Got the unit to a shop and they only put 4lbs of r404a. Still throws the same code. Unit sounds like it wants to stall out while getting up to temp. This happens only when parked. Unit runs fine when underway. Any knowledgeable refrigeration guys here?

    Coil is going bad. It's the one on top the steel header, behind passenger side door. $50 you can pry it up and pop new one, connect wiring harness. Job done.
