Seems to be cycling pretty quickly. 1.5 Lbs is the correct refrigerant; what's the sticker on the radiator support say.

I've got to get back to some corporate stuff. Check that the heater core is not allowing hot water into the core when in a/c mode. As in the other post. Have you overloaded the oil capacity?

I didn't evacuate/refill oil. And I assume yellow dye is OEM Nissan Luminous oil.
Hot coolant is always flowing through heater core here and only air flow regulates by diverters.
I've checked heat - works well, heats up and shuts down right after I've put temperature knob to Low.
The suction line is pretty freezing, just not enough time to pump it through evaporator.

I found this similar topic: viewtopic.php?t=14488
Nissan Pathfinder - with two evaporators - issue was: block expansion valve for the front evaporator.
