Hello Sir,
Just wanted to ask that why is my car airconditon not cooling so fine?

As the conditon of the car is awesome.

And one more thing, I want to ask is that when I stop my car my car is vibrating from inside.

I'll be waiting for the positive and helpful replies from you teachers :)

Regards,
Asim

Has the AC system ever been recharged?

As far as the vibration, when was the last tune up? Have you checked for vacuum leaks? Does it vibrate in park or neutral?

Chances are the AC system needs to be recharged. If it is low on freon, this can happen.

As far as the vibration, it seems to be coming from a low RPM when in gear. What I suggest is to start by checking for vacuum leaks. If there are none, have the idle air control motor checked or consider a tune up.

I must say that as a result of the small engine on these vehicles, often there is some vibration with the AC on, in gear, and at an idle.
