2006 XC90 Air will only blow cool at best

My XC90 has 134,800 miles. V8 AWD. Air started taking forever to cool in hot weather. Took to shop and they said all OK. Still does not work properly unless on Interstate at 70 MPH. Added refrigerant and no change. Any thoughts?

Check your cooling fan if its working properly, also have some one with experience and tools to check your refrigerant level as too much is also a problem.
Good Luck

Thank you for the input. I will check both and post.

The interstate thing is because highway speed manages to remove the heat from the condenser in front of the car. Meaning as mentioned the radiator fan doesn't turn fast enough - check out firstly the module that sits near the fan motor
