Default A/C Problem, after fix

Well, I brought my car into the dealer day before yesterday for the A/C warm/cold air intermittent problem. It happened twice on the way to the dealer. They had the car an hour and forty-five minutes while I waited and said the system wasn't overcharged (1.4 lbs), but was in fact undercharged (didn't say how much), they evacuated the system and charged it up to specs (1.1 lbs). The air worked fine on the way home. Went for a couple hour drive yesterday and it started blowing warm air again, but this time it lasted for about five minutes, I tried pushing every button, but it kept blowing warm. I gave up and put the window down and when I punched to to pass someone the air started working again and has worked fine since yesterday??

I had mine reduced down to 1.1 lbs. yesterday.

It was 113 outside when I drove home and the A/C worked perfectly.

I haven't had a chance to get out since.

I'm having this exact same problem with my A/C cutting out and having it kick-in at high rpm.
Chevy needs to post a TSB for this issue.

For what is worth. My wife's E-Class A/C stops for no reason and takes awhile to get going again. MB knows of problem but has no fix.

My C6 has done the warm air thing after sitting in the sun for awhile. It starts up by pressing the snowflake or getting on the freeway.

OK folks.......the 1.1 lb refrigerant adjust fixed my A/C!

It was 110 degrees in Phoenix today and my A/C worked flawlessly!
