That is great milleage. If I were in your shoes, I too would rather try to resist the urge to turn on the AC- just to keep the high milleage you are getting.


However, we ALL need to operate the AC for a minimal amount of time each week in order to keep the system lubricated. Even those folks living in the white north need to do so as well. If we do not, you may experience premature degradation of the seals and even the refrigerant. This is true for most vehicles equipped with factory installed AC's.
