Exclamation Aircon switches off in slow traffic driving

My aircon as been switching off and blowing warm air when driving in slow or heavy traffic. Once the road opens up the AC is cool again.
When the AC is working its actually quite cold.
Filled it refrigerant a few times but still no change.

Anyone came across this problem??

I get the same issue in my C55, unless the revs are up it is a bit warmer, I am worried the Compressor might be going. Can't do the climate control reset on the C55 system can you?

Yes, something is wrong. It should only take about a minute to reset.
