1st post, welcome. You might have one of several items going on with the AC. The very first and easiest thing to check is to see if you're low on refrigerant. C5s have weird things happen when the coolant is low. Also, you might have blend door issues. Those are addressed in many threads. Finally, have you pulled your codes to see if any codes are being thrown? If you know how to great. If not, here's a brief tutorial on pulling your codes. Reply back and let us know what you find. Also, tip for new members: finish your profile. It can be very beneficial to you and us if we simply know where you live.
Here's the tutorial.

Check the serpentine belt, AC compressor pulley may be slipping at higher rpm.

That's usually a sign of low refrigerant.

Take a look at this post. It has detailed instructions and a chart that might be helpful to you.
