Default A/C Question...

Guys my a/c compressor clicks every 5 seconds when I turn on the a/c. The ECC lights haven't flashed in about a month. Is this clicking normal? It's clicked like this ever since I bought the car last July. A/C blows cold still. Is this normal?

sounds to me like it might be low on refrigerant. You might wasnt to check that.

alright, I unscrew the blue cap on the passenger side? and put refrigerant in that way, while the car is revving @ 3,000rpm right?

I'd put a gauge on it and see what your pressure is before you add anything. it could also have too much in it.
