Next time it starts blowing warm air, pop the hood and see if the compressor is turning, not just the pulley but the front face of the clutch as well. If the comp is turning, put your hand on the suction line (runs from the comp back towards the firewall) and see if it feels cold. Check that and let us know what you find. HTH
