Help me avoid divorce/more money!

I need help. I have 2 wall units (10k btu) in 2 small bedrooms (11x8). Now they both have the same problem but 1 is definitely worse. The room in question is on the second floor, on a western facing wall. There is a 2'x4' slider window next to it. And a closet on the other side with a small access door to attic.

The units blow fine, it "feels" cold coming out, as I don't have a thermometer I can't say for certain the exact temperature. The problem is the room never gets that cold, a lot of times it feel humid.

The unit was replaced maybe 2 years ago. The prior units lasted about 5-6 years. The old units were covered with black.... mold maybe? I put them in myself.

I don't know what could be wrong. Maybe i didn't angle them correctly? Install them correctly? Some problem in the room itself? The lights do dim/flicker when the compressor kicks in.

Any ideas? Help? Advice? Condolences?
