The only time I got over heating was when I was idling in the driveway with the Compressor jumped. I have had the car idling in the driveway many times in the last 2 weeks in hotter weather with no issues. It only over heated once and it was the only time I had the AC compressor running. In the FAQ, it says the cars are more susceptible to over heating with the AC on. I had two problems from what I saw.
1.) No fan came on despite the coolant pressuring out of the reservoir.

2.) The gauge in the dash did not appear to show the car being hot.

The FAQ seems to discuss the inter-relation between the AC and the cooling system but I believe the discuss this mostly in reference to later 940's which I do not know where teh break off is.
