2002 A4 Issues

My 2001 does the same thing (at least for past couple years). Most noticeable when just starting off with a very hot interior ... the a/c comes on but the compressor soon goes off for about 20 seconds (before the car interior has cooled down) .. then it comes back on and continues the cool down normally. Don't know why it does this but I've become used to it.

I had my climate panel replaced on my 2002 1.8T already. Also there is a fuse (#37 ?) that blows becuase the motor / pump shorts out on the bottom of the fluid tank in the fender. I had my motors, bottles and headlight washer jets replaced...the entire system !!! Audi is NOTORIOUS for this from 1996 to 2004 A4s
