They did that and it still doesn't work. They didn't charge me he said to give it a day - been several and no difference.
I'll schedule an appointment with them but I figured if done had a similar experience they could enlighten me 😉
I understand it was a machine they connected it to, that's the only legal way to evacuate the system. I doubt the person knows a/c systems since they told you to give it a day, that's not how it works. If it wasn't blowing cold and the low side shows 120psi, there's a problem and the tech should have been able to diagnose or at least provide you with the possible causes (i.e. bad expansion valve). I'm surprise they didn't charge you, maybe they were looking at it like you were a guinea pig and they were learning with your car
Good luck sorting it out.

I know the owner (BMW guy) and his son did work on my Z4 before. I was very happy with their knowledge on figuring out the problem.
The son tested it and then had the system re-filled and pressurized .
The system if filled and not leaking, compressor is engaging when the a/c is turned on and all air directions (vent settings) are working .

I'm thinking that there is a problem in the a/c pump🤔
