Jet Engine AC
When you turn the AC on to Auto does it sound like a jet engine? The fan is so loud on the outside until it kicks down. Is this normal?

Yes. The AC is doing its' best to meet your demands, which means full power to the fan until it cools the car. I normally click the speed down a couple notches so it is off of the afterburner setting.

When the main fan turns on (including if your car is getting hot), yes the jet engine has fired up...
