Xterra AC question?

I have an '03 Xterra and whenever I'm at idle, like at a stop sign or parked, the ac warms up. It gets cold again as soon as the engine starts revving again. Is this normal, is the idle set too low, or do I just live with it.

I'd have the dealer (or someone) check the charge on the A/C system. I think we've discussed this before, though, and the consensus was the Xterra/Frontier A/C system is just plain too small. I don't know of anything you can do about it, nor do I know what "component" is too small. I don't have that problem on my Hardbody, so unfortunately, I can't help...except to say that it's really unacceptable for A/C on a modern vehicle to "go warm", even at idle. The A/C on my 20 year old Oldsmobile Cutlass didn't even do that.
