Hesitation when A/C is on

15 August 2013 - 11:30 PM

Hey guys I've been having this problem for a while now where when I turn the air conditioning on my car seems to feel like it's lost allot of power.

An easier explanation for it would be that it feels like something is grabbing constantly when the compressor engages and when it disengages I get a burst of power until it engages again.

I didn't worry about it before as I was too busy and it was too cold to use the ac but lately it's been hot so it's starting to get frustrating especially when trying to over take people.

I did manage to find a thread on another forum where a guy ran into the same problem but he never found a solution for it.

I have checked the belts already and everything is fine so I know the belts aren't slipping so if anyone has any ideas of what could be causing this they would be greatly appreciated.

Car is a 05 Impreza GX. Thanks in advance.

Cold idle issue

20 July 2013 - 08:37 AM

Hey all, I've been experiencing a bit of a issue when I first start my 05 Impreza GX in the morning.

Now this has been happening for a while but it's only just started to happen a bit more lately.

 

Now what happens is when I first start the car it goes up to 2000rpm then drops gradually like normal to around 1200rpm until warm which happens when the car doesn't play up but lately it's been going from 2000rpm then dropping below idle (Around 400rpm) then jumping back up and continuing to drop down every few seconds or so until I hit the accelerator then it will act like normal.

 

Any idea what could be causing that?

 

Thanks in advance.


Tweeter Static Problem

12 June 2013 - 03:25 PM

Hey all. Lets see if anyone can help me with my little/Big problem.

 

I installed a set of Alpine Type S 6.5" Component speakers in the front doors of my Impreza today and came across my static problem.

Now the speakers don't actually come with a standalone crossovers, It actually comes with some sort of inline coil which goes from the speakers to the tweeters.

 

I'm running these threw a Sony DSX-S300BTX Digital media head unit.

 

I get the static threw the radio and my ipod but no static when I turn the volume down to 0.

The static doesn't change volume but is at a decent volume level where I can hear it when ever there is a gap in music or if there is soft music playing.

 

I have done a bit of research and I've heard that it could be a connection problem which I can sort of understand and think it might be possible since I had to cut the wires down and I soldered them back together.

But when I had the doors apart and tested it before putting it all together I didn't hear any static.

 

So I have a question could the static be from the wires running along the door up to the tweeter?

Or could it also be coming from the inline coil that I cable tied to the door wiring harness?

 

Any other suggestions about what could be causing it would be greatly appreciated.

 

I know this isn't a audio forum so I don't expect everyone to be experts I just wanted to try here first to see.
