This is my latest LJ — had it a month or so. The A/C seemed reasonable when I bought it, but we ARE having a record heat wave and I took to Jeep out today...the A/C seemed fine at about 50-55mph, but driving home on the freeway (65-70mph), it got luke warm and I started worry about overheating the dog(!) as we aren't used to 109 degree heat in western Oregon. When I came off the freeway and drove my highway home, again at 55-ish, the A/C was markedly cooler again from the vents.
I have tossed on a set of '17 Rubicon wheels (maybe 31"?) with adapters and nothing else --it's an auto so it just idles along at 55mph (rpms "seem" a little too low IMO, but much larger tires, a lift, and regearing is in the works but aren't happening yet). So is this just symptomatic of the A/C needing a charge, or is this a TJ A/C thing? Truthfully, I don't use the A/C in my other TJs much so I haven't had this experience yet. None of my other cars have obvious air temperature fluxuations when driving.
Thanks.
