AC not blowing cold, 2010 Jag XF Supercharged. Once i turn the AC to lowest setting air gets cold, and then i adjust the temp. It will then continue cooling to the desired temp setting. Once the vehicle is parked and engine shut down the issue resurfaces. The cooling system will not engage until i turn the temp setting to the lowest possible. Could this be compressor failure, or just a simple leak or low refrigerant issue? I have also noticed on warmer rainy days an extensive amount of condensation on the inside of the wind shield, the defrost won't clear it as quickly as it did before.

The condensation on the windshield could be the seals in the air distribution box flappers going bad and letting more cooled air flow up through the defrost vents. Not something worth fixing.
Here's what the machine should look like. If the shop doesn't have one of these, go to another shop:
