A New A/C or Can It Be Fixed?

I have a 2006 Honda Civic LX and the A/C maybe checking out. When the cars been off for awhile the air works nice and cool. Here's what happens… If I accelerate sometimes after I’ve been driving for awhile, the A/C blows warm air or If I stop to run errnads the A/C will blow warm air after the 2nd or 3rd startup.

Can my mechanic fix whatever is going on or do I need a new A/C?

Thanks,

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Replace the compressor clutch relay first, see if that helps. Cheap and easy.

Original failure prone relay brand is OMRON
Updated relay brand is MITSUBA, Honda part number 39794-SDA-A05.

AC clutch relay is #12 in this diagram
