No use of aircon at high speeds, why?

[Gerbo]

When i bought a new compressor last year the old lady in the shop specifically told me to disengage the aircon during speeds of more than 100 kph to prolong compressor life. Does this make sense?

Anyway, when I used the car 2 weeks ago at medyo nagmamadali, I average 100-110 kph and 2 hours later before I arrived at my folk's home. Nawala lamig ng aircon.
Naisip ko tuloy sinabi ng ale? What gives or is it just a thermostat problem?

[cablespy]

sounds like bs. have compresser replaced.

[cocoy]

what most likey happend was that your compressor was producing too much pressure that may have iced up your evaporator..the termostat would have shut down your compressure.
but if after you drove normally again and the aircon compressor didnt cycle on again then that could be a totally different problem...

Doesn't make sense....

It looks like nag-overpressure sa linya kaya nag-shutdown ang compressor. How is it nowadays?

AC compressors can stand high engine RPMs

your problem could be somewhe from leak to electrical or mechanical fault

you'd be rather it checked by a qualified tech

A ok.

What's the cause of compressor overpressure?

[XTO]

I do follow that saying at more than 100 kph…. wala lang

Because personally I consider my a/c compressor as important as my engine so sending it side by side to it’s LIMITS will not give any takings in the future so I suppose it could really lessen the existence when subjected to continuous high revs.

[yapoy86]

aircon compressor is designed to withstand high RPM specifically... some advise it should be turned off so as to lessen the stress on the engine at high speeds or at inclined roads..

since it is attached to the engine, manufacturers surely incorporated it in the design that it can take high rpms.

SIR;

kailangan pong i switch off ang a/c switch kung hi-speed or mag overtake para gumaan sa makina, skabilang banda maari pong bumigay ang bearing ng compressor and mag burn out ang magnetic clutch.......

pwede rin pong nag hi pressure ang a/c system at i cut ng pressure switch ang current supply ng compressor, mas mainam po n ipacheck nyo po sa a/c technician bago p lumala ang sira....

same recommendation yung nasira yung compressor ng crv ng dad ko. yun naman parang nag crumple yung compressor kaya palit. sabi wag daw aircon sa high speeds kasi hindi kaya ng compressor... ano po logic dito? kasi ba mas mabilis ikot ng pulley at high speeds?

pero yung sa ek ko kahit takbo ko 140kph-180kph hindi naman ganon.
