IED

I am wanting the AC to come on. THe temperature in the car is very hot and yet the AC will not kick in.

I have a problem with the AC that may be coneected with the internal temperature sensor. SOmetimes my AC will come on when I hit Auto, even when it is warm in the car. WHen it is really hot inside the car (over 100) then it will kick in. Anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions? This is on a 2001 Outback with the 3.0 engine Ian

Have read many of the threads on this site aout towing a trailer and no-one seems to have had any issues. I have to drive my 2001 LLBean 3.0 automatic almost 1000 miles from one end of California to the other, towing a U-Haul trailer - mostly freeway miles. Manual says total towing limit is 2000 pounds, but with no passengers can that be increased? I want to pull a total trailer and load weight around 2500 pounds. Any experience?
