maybe your car is at low rpm.. stock ecu doesn't always raise rpm when a/c is turned on..

thats true...my idle rpm drops when i turn on the ac. you just gotta learn how to adjust aka give it just a little bit more gas. This only happens when you turn on the ac, after you run it a bit, the idle rpm goes back to normal.

I'm guessing it is robbing power from the engine... and with such a small engine, that causes a considerable loss. Happens in my car too.

A/C is like a kill switch for our little Honda/Acura's

Mine sounds like the engine has spun a bearing when I turn on the AC. I get a kind of knocking sound.
Anyone else hopefully

Yeah, also make sure you give it more gas when taking off so you don't stall. It happened to me 3-4 times when I first got the car. Man, that was EMBARASSING!
