Default Aux belt noise plus not great aircon

So... since the garage did all the belts and pump (including the V-belt which they spotted was cracked a lot) it's gained A Noise. I guess a new taught belt can reveal the wear in a pully or component? Anyway the aircon isn't very good (it's obviously working a bit, because it's not warm, but it's not particularly cold unlike the Viva which is like being in a blast freezer).

Could it be The Noise is a failing compressor, also explaining the notGreat aircon? It's 17 years and 124,000 miles old so it's probably due a shiny new one.

Or, is the aircon on these cars not great? I can't find it now but I recall some discussion on here about it being poorly designed.

(I'm kinda hoping a 2 in 1 fix here)
