Really wierd problems with AC and Performance

04 Aero SS, AT, 103K km:
1. AC compressor engaging on rare occasions (cooling agent OK)
2. Limited performance in 1st and 2nd gears: as if the Trionic is limiting torque for some reason. And I mean LIMITED. Seen when the engine is hot (though normal working temp): experienced in traffic/city commute. Not seen on highways (better engine cooling???)
No fault/error codes. Dealer doesn't have a clue.
Have the feeling these two are somehow connected: e.g. if the AC compressor engages once (for some reason, normally it doesn't), it disingages when flooring it hard (re-engages if the engine is restarted). Being gentle with the pedal may leave you enjoying some cool air in the cabin longer.
I suspect it's a sensor thing. Any ideas?
Thanks!!
