As crazy as it sounds, that is actually a feature. Many cars turn on the AC compressor for a few minutes at low temperatures to remove moisture from the interior of the car. This is to prevent the interor of the glass from fogging up.

I agree with you in that I like settings to stay put after I set them, but I am also like the automatic items like closing the sunroof when it rains, turning on the lights and wipers automatically, autochromic mirrors, and the AC power socket on the center console to charge my laptop.

Yeah.. but I don't like being doused with cold air when it's freaking cold outside. It can use the AC to dehumidify the air, and still have it be warm. I did it in my BMW all the time.

On the same end, I prefer 68 F in the air during summer time. It will scale back the fan and all of a sudden my eyes burn and its because there's no cool air coming out anymore because it thinks my car is cool enough.

I understand I have a climate control system. But it has an Auto button. It should work in Auto when I push that button, and if I dial in my own settings, the car should follow my instructions and do what I told it to.

I've never waiting long enough to see the sunroof close on it's own... cool feature though!

What are the instructions to reboot the MMI? I can't find my car's book right now. I recently moved and a few things are still at my old house.

Press the "Setup" button, the selector dial and the upper right control button at the same time. The control buttons are the 4 buttons right around the selector dial. That will reboot the MMI.
