Hi,
When I turn on the AC, the compressor kicks in. However, if I am at idle or at a stoplight, the air is not cold. This is very apparent on a hot day. Also when the AC is switched on, there is a noticable diff in accelration, the car pulls slowly.
Is it normal for this model/year? Also, is there a way to check if more freon needs to be added.
I don't know if this model/year has a AC microfilter.

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks
Raju
