Intermittent AC Problem
I even hesitate to call it a problem, because it hasn't really failed me, especially on very hot days, but...
One day a few months ago I was driving through a sparsely-populated area, one might even say, down country roads, winding and sometimes surrounded by trees, when it failed. I had to open the windows because it became rather uncomfortable in the car. A few weeks ago, returning from a long trip via the interstate, it failed briefly but came back after a little while. Not exactly sure what caused the problem either time. I did try charging the system before the long trip though. The gauge on top of the can was already in the green. The system hasn't failed me since then but I haven't really taken any unusual trips since then, either. |
First you need to define "failed"...

If I had to guess I'd say the compressor stopped working temporarily during those times. |
Does your 2003 have an "Auto" setting on the fan switch and temps (20-25-30), on the heat setting?
If it does then it could also be in the temp control sensors and circuitry... |
Check the compressor clutch gap.

I don't see anything indicating an Auto setting, seems to be all manual.
