Busted A/C unit?
I was pulling the Camaro out this morning and noticed oil on the ground where the car was parked. After popping the hood, I see the the lower belt is completely off the car with a few strings of it left around the pulley. There is oil everywhere and I am assuming it is freon oil from the A/C compressor.
I bought the Camaro two months ago and she has 2300 miles on her...crazy. I am at the dealer right now trying to confirm the issue.

I take it no one else has had a similar issue?

Does anyone know if my custom map would cause this to happen? The clutches in the AC is regulated by the computer.
If I am putting out more horses and the Software for the computer is engaging the clutches in the AC at a different rate, could it be burned up that way? Can Ted adjust the AC setting?

Ok, it was repaired. I left all the MODs on and even the JRE tune. They replaced the AC compressor and the belt.
