AC not cooling

I have a 2005 Hyundai Elantra, and I have been having an issue with the A/C not always being cold. When I am driving on the freeway and they engine is running at higher RPM's the A/C work great and is cold. But when I am at stop signs or get into traffic on the freeway and I slow down the air from the A/C unit seems to be outside air temp or hotter. If anyone knows anything that would help that would be great. Thanks

I would suggest your Freon is getting low in your air conditioner. As the motor revs up it circulates but won't when the engine slows down. Get a mechanic to put a tester on it and should not cost a lot of money if that is all the trouble there is..

SOURCE: A/C hot and cold air....

Technical Information: When the engine overheats (goes above 220 to 230 degrees), the ECM (Engine Contro Module) will disable the AC (won't let the compressor engage). This is a safety feature of the EMS (Engine Management System) to reduce potential damage to the engine from an overheat condition. Check your coolant level in the radiator & reseviore -- Low coolant level can produce the symptom you describe -- if low, top them off. Inspect your radiator hoses/cooling system for any signs of leakage (crusty deposits of dried coolant). Wherever you find this, that's where it's leaking. If you don't find any signs of leakage, replace the thermostat (& gasket if required (as a precaution) anyway. When the engine overheats, both cooling fans should come ON HIGH! If they aren't/don't, something's wrong and you need to find the cause. Every two to three years the cooling system should be flushed and inspected to ensure proper operation/condition and system protection. Overheating can seriously damage the engine. $$$$. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

How can you tell your a/c is ready to replace it`s coolant gas? My 2007 elantra particularly on a hot day doesn`t send cold cold air at the coldest level indicator It is cool but would that indicate the...

To tell if the ac coolant requires replacement the car will not cool when the sun is out and at all time you might have to put the car ac in coolest to enable a little bit of cold air.

Also the back seat will not be cool except the car is running on the highway.

Gas might be leaking somewhere.

Good luck
