Sometimes? Like when?

You know guys that have the problem, what problem is it? Have they solved it or are they wondering as well? I can look for bulletins pertaining to the car but you could also get those for any GM vehicle and asking that question to the service departments.

If your having an issue "at times".... more then likely a recirculation door error/or programming error(sync). Or,... you could have a leak of some sort, and may have lost refridgerent....possibly causing further damage.

It's anyones guess.

The a/c problems I've seen here at the shop on C6's are after adding headers. The a/c systems have been coming from the factory overcharged with too much freon and the ambient heat from the headers causes the hi side pressure to rise too much and it cuts the a/c compressor off until you get some airflow across the condensor and then it comes back on.

Most guys notice this problem after they stop at the gas station then start the car to leave and the a/c is blowing hot until the get moving down the road. I usually let some of the freon out to lower the hi side pressures and all is well again.

GL with it.
