Ok - i am new to this forum, andhave a problem. I recently purchased a 2003 eclipse gs- beautiful car, but ive been having some a/c problems. it works , then at stop signs or at slow speeds or id hot weather, it stops working. i took it to my mechanic, who is a very honest man (friend of the family)and coulndt find anything wrong with it- of course. it worked fine for him when he had it - but just the ther day i was driving and the ac was not working - of course , but i still had it on to see if it would eventually kick on. it was hot that day and all of a sudden black smok started coing through the vents. i shut the car off immediately and it smelled like burnt wiring or something. i let it set for a few minutes and drove back to work. i caled my mechanic right away and he had never heard of that before. the radiator fluid is full, and there is no leak in the ac system. he had charged it the first time i took it to him so it wasnt that. it is not too full to where it would shut off compression nor is it low! the car only had 40,000 miles on it and runs great besides the a/c. still worried about the smoke that came through the vents. he said the last thing he could think of is an "orfacis" valve that is bad? my check engine light has not come on - SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP!
