air conditioning compressor dying?
hey guys, just wondering if the same thing is happening to anyone else, my air conditioning until i rev my engine, anything moderately high like 4000+ it just doesn't work anymore until i park my car and get back in after a bit. sound familiar to anyone? is it my compressor? thanks in advance

Sorry about the ridiculously late reply, but you also say that it recovers if you park the car for a bit? Something you could try is adding more AC fluid (r134a) to it as it could be losing pressure causing the compressor to turn off. Slow leaks and all that. Now this may not work but its worth a shot IMO

just emptied it and refilled it (not into the atmosphere, into the machine) and now it works damn near steady for a decent amount of time (15 min or so) but after it stops working, it will not turn on again for a looooong while, the engine just compensates with the revs but the compressor clutch doesn't kick in so i'd idle at like 1200
