I am having this same issue...did anyone resolve this? My ac is on full blast all the time. While I am driving you can tell when the a/c compressor isn't on with the air getting warmer and more humid. Then it goes back to cooling. This happens on/off while driving. Also....compared to my wifes car my a/c takes FOREVER to cool the car because of this!!

With AC ON:
it blows cold air when the car is moving. When I came to a stop and waited for green light, the air blow warmer and warmer and smell bad until I move the car again.

Needs a recharge or something went wrong with the AC?
Had the same problem. Went to the dealer, had the system sucked out, recharged with the dye inside and checked for leaks. Also put a new charcoal air filter in. No more problems... $159
