A real longshot but if it was the problem a right result.
On my 2001 Mondeo I had exactly the same symptoms and same feedback from the guys that regassed it. On mine the clutch was cutting in and out at random... seen by looking at the aircon pump and noticing when the pump clutch centre was failing to spin.
Lots of talk about a new pump being needed when I found an obscure source with information that the magnetic clutch could get tired and fail to pull in to spin the pump... but that this could be re-shimmed to close the static gap a little.
And sure enough I found the shim part numbers, sourced them from Ford for less than £1.50 and 20 mins under the car later it was A1... compared well with the £500 the dealer quoted for a new pump!
