In a search I came across this thread and was intrigued because my AC compressor clutch disengages after about 10 mintues. A few things I would note are:

1. I am not getting airflow through the center vents. Lethermang alluded to this, what's the deal -last year it was plenty of cold air through the center vents.

2. I don't suspect the Klima itself (because I replaced it a couple years back), but can do the 5 to 7 pin jumper to see what happens. However . . .

3. I should note that the compressor does seem to come back on sometimes after shutting down, and without having to shut down and restart the car. Even when it is on though, the air isn't freezing cold.

I am going to put some guages on tonight and will report back. But I am wondering if anyone has any thoughts. Thanks.
