I've had my 2003 Xterra for about a month now and until recently haven't had to use the A/C much as I prefer windows down cruising. But lately its been too hot and I had to resort to the A/C, and of course it robs some power, but has anyone had the issue with truck feeling like its pulsing about once every second? At first I thought I was imagining it or just absentmindedly pulsing the pedal myself, but my passengers have noticed it too, and it happens on cruise control. Its noticeable enough that I can feel my body jerk back from the acceleration, all while maintaining a constant speed. The rpm's appear to stay constant...has anyone else noticed this? Is it just a natural characteristic of the truck or does it sound like something is wrong? Any advice?
