Ok guys, two days ago, I get in my car after work, I go to turn the AC on and the read-out on the climate control unit was blinking on and off...but after about 10 seconds, it came on and was fine...today, I went to turn the AC on again, this time it took about 2 minutes for it to come on...then, about 20 minutes ago, i went to move my car, turned the AC on, and I get nothing...no readout, no AC...it's like the climate control unit is dead...I checked all my fuses, and they are fine...what do you suggest I do?

It may be that the AC system needs service (may be that is why it was blinking the display). When was the last time the AC filters were changed? In any case unless you want to try DIY on it I'd take it to a dealer and let them check it out.

Sounds like your climate control unit is not working properly, seems that a lot of people are having this same problem where the AC turns on and off by itself, myself included. Here is a link addressing this problem, http://www.unofficialbmw.com/cgi-bin...c&f=2&t=006333 There are some other helpful links there as well. My question is if this might still be covered under warranty, because if not then I am going to just try to fix it myself
