    Today was very hot in my country, in some parts 46° celcius, i got 35° in my trip home, i turned the AC (its digital) on and i put 21° and the fan on level one, its enough to keep the temperature fine, putting less than that (it goes to 15°) and its really cold... The strange thing is that it keeps cycling a lot (several times a minute) and the fan always running when i stop, specially when i left the highway and entered the city... Its a struggle to put it going, i have already talked to mitsubishi as i wrote before and they say its normal.

    The scroll type a/c compressor the Mirage uses really zaps the power. I think Mitsubishi missed a opportunity on this and would have had better, less power drain from a electric a/c compressor instead of a belt driven one. The multiple cycling per minute may be a sign of low refrigerant levels but the only way to be sure would be to have the system checked for leaks and charged if necessary.
