Auto Climate Control Intermittent

Has anyone else experienced intermittent auto climate control. It is just regarding the AC portion really and mostly noticeable during stop and go driving. Also while idling with the engine warm and with AC on, my rpm will fluctuate from 500-1000 while AC off it stays at a constant RPM. Also while this happens if I set the setting on low instead of a temp, it still blows hot air. Was mostly wondering if anyone experienced this. Obviously I am going to take it to the dealership as soon as I can, but would prefer if there was another fix, I could attempt

Forgot to mention my LED DRL will sometimes turnoff when coming to a stop and clutch is disengaged. It seems like the compressor tries to engage then disengages because too low of a voltage so it runs the rpm high

I am aware of low idle and what not with the AC, just not AC completely turning off and just blow hot air

i've had mine just freeze up and turning the ac completely off and back on got it back up and running but never had it just randomly start and stop on its own or have the drls just turn off. Do you have any amps/subs installed in your car or anything that would be pulling a lot of power?

No additional items as far as electrical. I do have a lightweight pulley. I manually turn off the ac and sometimes it starts it again and sometimes it doesn't. When the ac does start back up, usually in 15 min it turns off. Almost seems like it idles to low, reads too low of a voltage and then disengages the clutch to the compressor. It has the only recall done to it awhile back, but never really used my ac until recently

Well going to connect my tablet and my elm327 to get running voltage readings
