Default Air conditioner

Is there a way to make my AC colder by adding freon or something? I swear it used to be a lot more colder. Also my car shakes pretty bad when I turn it on, could it be loose somewhere?

if your a/c is not cold you either have/are:

low on freon
a/c compressor going bad
hole/leak in the a/c lines/condensor.

You probably should get it tested, should cost to much if anything.

its not recommended because you cant remove the air from the system with the diy kits. so it wont be nearly as cold. Just get a recharge the correct way and if there is something else wrong, the a/c people will know and find it.
