Default AC cuts out in hot weather

I've had a problem with AC for sometime that no one could sort out.
I bought the cable to observe what happens when it fails.
Today being 38 Celsius I've run the test and found that the AC regulator is kicking out the AC because the pressure is hitting 29 bar.
With temps in the 40s for the rest of the week would be nice to know how to fix.
Is it over gassed?
Normally it sits at about 23 bar when temp is below 33...

Car is An AUDI A3 8P MY09

I ran the same test when the weather was cooler and OK.
When the outside temp was about 23 Celsius the pressure was 20 Bar.
