Clicking noise from ac compressor

Yes I used the search function and google but I think my case is just a little weird and I hope its normal! When I first start my car in the morning to warm up, is it normal for the ac compressor clutch to engage even though my ac or defrost is NOT on? it only happens when I let her warm up. I just noticed it today. Thanks guys!

I think the clicking noise is normal - I have heard it. But I think I only hear it when the AC is on.

If your ac is low, it will make a clicking/ surging noise.

Hmm, that would make sense if the freon is low. I did have my ac fixed not too long ago it had a leaking condenser. Well time to go back to the dealer, thanks fellahs!

It's good to hear that you were able the problem with your ac is solved. I got ac problem my own. There's also the leakeage on the R-134a, nothing on the loop to carry away. The compressor is stuck-- it wasn't turning at all. It might be a problem with the fuse, wiring or the switch is really broken. I was planning on buying a new one. >_<
