Steve,
I can't remember who it was or when it was (sorry) but (I think) a couple
months ago someone was having problems that were hard to diagnose and he was
able to get some kind of device from the dealer that recorded everything
that when on. Once this info was captured (I believe) it was easy to
diagnose. You should see if your dealer has such a device.

Bernd,negative on the defroster being on.But there is a "sapping" effect
that is similar to the compressor cycling on/off.But this is much more
rapid (feels like you`re driving over small bumps in the road) and
probably ten times more severe,as far as affecting performance and
driveability.Almost got me hit head-on when I went to pass a Ford
Perspire! Now that was a humbling experience! I also can see it on the
tach when it stumbles or misses.Tach does not climb smoothly during
acceleration.But no,the a/c only causes a little bit of power loss when
my Dak is running A-OK. Thanks,Steve P.
