Houston Summer Heat

Here in Houston, it reaches into the mid 90's usually and I've noticed that when I'm driving and I let off the gas pedal, n let it just coast, the air out of the AC isn't AS cold as if I was pushing the gas pedal. So I push the gas pedal and the air becomes colder, I let off the pedal and the air isn't as cold.

any ideas??

Look at the part that shows the man its by the track display. You will see a car with arrows. Put the A/C to cycle the air in your Car and not allow the air from out side in.
Hope that helps.

An 05 vintage 8 should not need this older TSB to upgrade the original factory unit, but you might want to read it anyway. Might be that your AC Amplifier is failing.

Thanks for the suggestions,
I'll try the first idea and if that doesn't work, then do I just print out the TSB and take it to the dealer and they will do it and it will be covered under warranty or am I missing something? I don't think that new warranty covers this, but I'm not sure........
