A/C sometimes not working...
Recently I noticed my A/C pump sometimes not working. Usually after a short drive it starts to work again. Then again this morning I could hear it work immediatly after starting the engine. Having it checked out by the dealer later this week. Anybody else experience this ?
Next to that my clutch pedal started to squeek a bit... Guess a bit of grease will fix that...

Mine is plain not working. It has a leak in the compressor, and now the whole system is depressurized. I'm waiting for the replacement parts to be available.

I guess we can all look forward to AC failure at 130,000 km's.

It's what I'm working on. So far, Acura has agreed to take the compressor at their charge.

Came across this thread and it mentions how the A/C automatically shuts off when in WOT, not sure if it applies to you:
