air conditioning clicking
Has anyone noticed a clicking noise from the A/C compressor when the a/c is on. It seems mine make a loud click about 20 seconds when the a/c is on. Please let me know if this is normal.

Funny you should post this. I noticed mine was clicking constantly, but not very loud. I only noticed it yesterday as I had my radio off.
I will take mine in as they are replacing my entire drive shaft because of the slip/clunk I get from accelerating from a dead stop.

I've had the same issue. I've got the auto climate control, and the very first time I used the A/C I noticed an unreasonable "click" as the compressor goes on and off. I timed mine about a month ago - temp was in the low 90's and humidity was in the upper 60%'s - it was clicking on and off every 7-9 seconds. It's something I plan on telling the service dept when I take it in. I've got 1200 miles and am getting about 11-12 MPG in town (screw 5.4, 3.73ls, 4wd).

It is normal & is the ac units compressor / nothing to be worried or anything you need to take your truck in for. There are several changes they made to this ac unit & w/ my truck it does not have the cooling fan so the unit will be clicking & working that much harder. Its something I'm sure they will try & fix in the near future.
