Ghibli AC was barely cooling and I found a place that actually knew what they were doing

Had this nagging issue with my 2015 Ghibli where the AC would start off nice and cold but after about fifteen minutes of driving it would just taper off to a weak cool breeze that barely kept the cabin comfortable, and I spent the last month dreading taking it anywhere because the dealer is a whole day affair and every independent shop I called seemed hesitant to touch an Italian car like it was some kind of exotic spaceship, so I just kept putting it off and rolling the windows down at signals like a peasant until the other day when I finally stumbled across a spot that does Expert Maserati AC Maintenance in Sharjah and honestly the whole experience was way less stressful than I’d built up in my head, they had the proper manifold gauges and actually knew the correct refrigerant capacity off the top of their head instead of just guessing like the last guy I tried, turns out the system was just a bit low on charge and the cabin filter looked like it had been collecting dust since the car left Modena, forty five minutes later I’m driving back home with the AC blasting so cold I had to turn the fan speed down and now I’m just annoyed at myself for tolerating a hot car for weeks because I assumed nobody local would know how to work on a Maserati properly.
