Hi everyone, Noticed this about half an hour ago. When I was parked up at a friends house (with the engine still running) I herd a clicking noise come from my engine (only once) then about 2-3 minutes later it clicked again and continued to click every 2-3 minutes. Even when driving it does it.

Any ideas? Is this normal?

Thanks

No I don't think so but speaking about ac sometimes I look at its not not sure if I'm hitting the button when changing gear or if it has a mind of its own

When you turn the dial all the way so it demists the window ac automatically turns on and when if already in the demist position and you turn the fans on it turns on :P
