When i first bought the car, the A/C worked perfect, the guy said he just replaced the compressor, heater core, charged it, etc...., well on day i was driving on the highway, and i floored my gas to pass someone and the A/C stopped blowing cold, i heard of a car doing this sometimes, but the A/C never started blowing cold again, ever since then, when everything on the Temp control panel in the car is off, air comes from the vents like the fan is on low, the air is really hot when hot is selected on the temp control, and the air is room temp when its on the cold setting, but everything is turned off, i can hear the compressor click on when i turn it to "A/C", so could it possibly be that the door is stuck or actuator is messed up, im trying to sell my car HELP PLEASE!!!! thank you NOTE: when you switch the nob to floor or defrost and other settings they all work, but when on defrost or floor, you can still feel the little air coming from the dash vents, as i described earlier.

Year, make and model? Have an a/c shop or garage check it out...you may have small leak in the system and need to be recharged. Some systems will temporarily turn off the a/c under acceleration to reduce strain on the engine but should come back on under normal driving. Constant air through the dash vents may be from the system being in fresh air mode or it could be a bad blend door or actuator.

Well initially it sounds like you need to have the freon re-charged or flushed and changed. Now you say you can hear the compressor clutch kick in when you turn on the A/C, but is the clutch staying engauged for long periods of time? If it engauges and only stays on for short periods of time then the clutch could be going out or gone. As far as the constant breeze in your ride, is your system set to fresh air or recirculate? If its on fresh air then it is normal for free flowing outside air to come into the vehicle, but not in excess.
