[s-cars] quiet day? -- A/C blower fan

[Theodore Chen]

funny, i don't remember my car doing that.  the only thing i notice is
that if i turn off the car with the HVAC running, and then i drive the
car the next day, it turns on at the lowest setting until the car warms up.
but i think that's by design.

i don't recall the car automatically turning the AC on if i shut down the
car with the system off.

of course, it's been a month since i last drove the car... dammit.

the 330Ci i'm driving now exhibits the behavior you describe.  every
time i start the car, it automatically switches on the climate control
even if i turned it off before.  rather annoying.
