Why is my Audi 80 making a loud clicking noise when I turn on the A/C?

I just got a new Audi 80 and noticed that whenever I turn on the A/C, there's a loud clicking noise coming from the dashboard. Is this a common issue? Should I be worried?

Hi Ethan, I've had a similar issue with my own Audi 80. The most likely cause of this clicking noise is a faulty A/C compressor clutch. It's a relatively easy fix, just make sure to take your car to a trusted mechanic to get it replaced.

Don't worry Ethan, this is a common problem in Audi 80s. The A/C compressor clutch tends to wear out after a while and can make that clicking noise. Just schedule a visit to your mechanic's and have them take a look at it.
