I had my AC start to struggle after running nonstop in Texas a week or two ago, it happened twice, both times long days and was in camper mode for a long time and then it was like it was muffled or something..... Anyway, was in for service last week, and they pulled the logs.... get this.... it is apparently too good..... ice built up on the compressor or something and restricted flow.... was told that they are working on a firmware update for this. It took a long time, at least 5 hours of driving and running while in park, in 100+ degree weatherHey folks. Currently on a 1200 mile epic journey home from Florida to Ohio. It’s pretty toasty down here as you may imagine. Have had the air con pretty much running non stop. Every 10-15 minutes the AC condenser seems to cycle off for about 45-60 seconds. Then comes right back on. With no user input.
Driving in range mode. Roadster 613 2.0 with r80 upgrade. New car to me. 4500 miles young.
Is this behavior normal? When condenser is on we get super cold and comfy temps. So maybe his is a function of range mode? Or just the condenser not wanting to overheat?
Pretty interesting huh?
