I have an abnormal surge in power when accelerating while the AC is going. It feels like there is smooth acceleration and then a surge and then it levels out.

Does this happen at the exact time that you turn the A/C on?

AC just stays on in my car so i couldn't say that it is the exact time that it kicks on.

If you leave the A/C on all the time, there's appx. a 10% drop in HP. If you step down on the accelerator far enough, I think that the compressor cuts out. My guess is that surge you feel may be due to the compressor being off briefly & 10% more power getting to the front wheels for that short time.

I was reading the manual and it said that it is normal to feel some speed changes with the ac on. thanks marc.
