Success. New expansion valve from Rock Auto arrived yesterday. A/C guy swapped it out, refilled with R134a, A/C now works like it was intended.
Cost CD$ US$
Parts $33.72 $25.92 delivered to my door
R134a $60.00 $46.12
Labour $40.00 $30.74
Total $133.72 $102.78
Considering the Porsche Dealership quoted me $120 CD$ for the part & 2 hours @ $160.00 an hour installation PLUS the recharge of R134a at who knows what price, I think I got off pretty cheap.
