It is normal,to a point.The system will kick on when it needs to.If yours is doing it everytime you start it and it hasn't been sitting for a long period of time,then there is a leak in the system causing it to bleed down.

Check the mounting for the air compressor. They can rattle like heck if loose. Put the 2 side by side and compare them. Then go back the the dealer. Take both expys if need be. If the compressor is going bad I'm sure they are at least a $200.00 item.
