Air conditioner on Type-S

[preston23]

I've noticed with the A/C on I can feel the engine vibrations at a stop more so then when its off. Anyone else noticed this? Maybe I will have them check it out at my first oil change.

Seems normal to me. The engine is under more strain because it's running the AC compressor when the AC is turned on.

If you can feel it a lot more, then maybe it's a concern that needs to be looked at. Hard to say without knowing more though, but things like this aren't always easy to describe either. Video might help, but even then it's different then actually feeling it.

That said, I've noticed more NVH with the AC on in some other vehicles I've had too so I wouldn't call it abnormal if it's only a bit more.

Can't hurt to ask the dealer/service dept. though, especially if it gets worse.

Yeah that’s normal as long it’s not earthquake like excessive. Flip it on comfort mode at a stop and you’ll notice it’s not so bad

It's just kind of annoying because I can feel it in the seat and I'm always aware of vibrations after a spark plug broke off into the cylinder on the interstate and then I was stranded at a truck stop all day in my RSX. lol
