Took me 8 and yes literally 8 years to figure out that the fan clutch was the problem. Another user on here (Street Creeper?) had mentioned that he had the same issue and resolved it by replacing his fan clutch. So I replaced mine with Aisin p/n FCT-013 and never had the issue again. I can now run my A/C full blast in 3 figure temperatures with no issues. All I'll add is to be careful when removing the 4 nuts that hold it in place, they can be easily rounded. They're like $80-$90 and I would do it all over again if I had to.
That's good to know! Thank you! I'll put it on my list. Did you perform any testing on the fan clutch before removal?
