Satchel Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 A friend said I should always turn off the A/C before turning off the car, as the life of the A/C system will be shortened if I leave it on during the process of starting the car. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Should I worry about turning off the A/C before I turn of the key? thanks Satchel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKperformance Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 Turning the ac off before you turn the car off atleast 5 mintues before if bareable is a good idea to keep mould build up from moisture collecting and growing on the condensor. Having the a/c runnign at start ,i can;t see a problem with it as the engine is cold and so is the system which won;t start for a few second before cylcing off and on.
