I have a 2005 Mazda rx8 MY AC Blows hot at idle but blows cold when driving or revving engine. What's my car's problem?

Condenser. It’s not getting airflow at idle. Fan is either blocked or not working would be my first guess. It’s located in front of the Radiator.

^^^ Agreed. Confirm your undertray is on...secure, and foam sealing around the condenser/ rad help.

Yep, airflow problem at idle, check the fans are working and blowing in the correct direction. Also ensure the undertray is installed and functional.
