    Believe me, there were tons of possible problem


    1.If your engine is getting hot and the AC is not working properly in stop and go traffic the obvious cause is poor airflow through the radiator and ac condenser (mounted in front of the radiator). Your car use a thermostatic controlled fluid coupled cooling fan clutch that should provide adequate cooling when using the air in traffic. They do go bad so have it checked, more than likely it has to be the problem since you're getting adequate cooling and the AC works fine at highway speeds.

    2. or Refrigerant level is getting low, or need to recharged

    3. or If it's over 100 F outside the a/c shutdown will occur due to compressor getting too hot. You can prevent this manually selecting recirc when it's this hot as the re-circulated air entering evaporator will allow the return refrigerant back to compressor to cool it down enough to prevent this. Don't let it stay on recirc forever as this will lead to a much increased likelihood of a/c odors.

    sa A/C manifold gauge puedeng madiagnose yan . kailangan mo A/C TECHNICIAN .

    question ,measured ba ang refrigerant mo ?

    that could be the reason why your compressor is cutting off.
