weird AC problem

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by nooneinparticular314159, Jul 15, 2006.

  1. I have a 99 civic. The air conditioning usually works beautifully. I
    usually drive about 11 miles to and from work, but don't use my car
    much beyond that. A few weeks ago, on a hot and humid day, I was
    driving on a highway for about 40 miles. The AC kept alternating
    between nice cool air and hot and humid air. It wasn't very pleasant.
    Since then, I've had no problems at all. What could have caused this?

    Thanks!

  2. -----------------------------------

    On rec.autos.makers.honda This question is being discussed for the
    last few days. If it's getting hotter than the ambient temp, your heater
    core is circulating HOT water because the valve isn't shutting off.

  3. Why would this happen intermitantly?

    Is this an expensive repair? (Assume that I will not repair it
    myself.)

    Is it something that I could do myself easily?

    Thanks.
