The last week or so it has been exceptionally nice by me, I used the sunroof & had the climate control off. When I would restart the car the Auto climate control would turn on by itself. Is this normal?

No, not unless you touch one of the HVAC controls OR the TEMP control on the steering wheel.

When you turn the climate control off, you have to push the off button *twice* if anyone has touched the passenger temperature controls. Otherwise, it does not turn off.

So, if you're having problems really shutting the thing down, consider pulling the fuse and let it reset itself when you power it back up and definitely check the passenger control for problems.

Thank you guys. It's probably as simple as I didn't realize that I'm probably hitting the buttons on the steering wheel. I'll be conscious of that and it will probably take care of the situation.

How did you managed to hit the buttons without realizing it?
