Another classic terrible thread by me. You've been warned.

Before you shut down your 203, do you shut down the AC or just let that bad boy run?

Told you, terrible thread.

I don't turn anything off, it turns itself off when I take the key out.

No.. You should be a Moderator because you ask the questions that no one thinks of.. For example, when using a condom, do you roll it off or slap it off when finished..?

Now that was funny! (Condom comment)

I turn it off if the car will sit a while because I had another car that grew mold due to the precipitation that had let it grow on the evaporator.

eclectic assortment of cars
I voted for #4 in jest.

However, to note - half of the year, the AC doesn't run or barely runs in our cars because of the sh*t season called winter (only redeeming features of winter are hockey and skiing). For winter, basically the heat is on full blast all the time, and I leave that setting as is too. Things may be a bit different for me this coming year, as I will drive my recently acquired A4 most of the time, instead of the C55.

C55 AMG T with Kleemann K2 and some stuff: 414 hp and 576Nm :-)
In winter, or WHEN you have a lot of moist in the car, use the AC!
It dries the wet out !
And it´s good to use the AC now and then, even when you don´t need it.

I don't have a C Class. But whenever I'm about to turn the car off, I always turn off the AC/heat right before.

I turn mine off a few minutes before to give it time to dry off. I hate mold/mildew
