Sounds like non-condensibles in the systems.

Sorry, forgot to ask, was the leak fixed and the unit vacced out again before recharge?

Hi thebigcheese,

I suggest that you put the unit in cooling mode and take all he readings. Then put it in heating mode then take the readings again.
LP , HP, SH , SC, Ait temp. in and out of the indoor unit, ambient temperature.

These can help to diagnose the fault.
Cheers:)
