Defrost setting uses A/C as well. Idle hunting can be a number of things - any check engine codes to go on?

Yes, if defrost is on, it will run the A/C compressor, even if the A/C is off.

The a/c compressor clutch may need to be adjusted. I've seen where you insert some washers between the a/c compressor clutch and the housing so it doesn't disengage when it's under load.

If the compressor is cycling I would think the freon is low.

Shims are normally REMOVED (or replaced with thinner shims) if the clutch is failing to engage, and generally only added if clutch is rubbing on something.
