    off muna lahat bago ko patayin ang engine. actually, pagpasok pa lang ng village, patay na ang aircon at blower at nakabukas na lang ang bintana. patay na rin ang radyo. headlights na lang talaga. tapos pagpark, patay muna ang headlights, pahinga ng around 30 seconds, then turn off the engine.

    I usually turn off the A/C first (thermostat then blower), apart from the lights and radio before the engine.

    Minsan pag nagmamadali ako, nauuna ko pang mapatay yung makina bago yung A/C. But the next time I start the engine, I make sure that everything is turned off first.

    Not okay for me…it will only take few seconds or even a second to turn you’re a/c on after starting, you can also allow your oil indicator to at least fade before turning your accessories on
    Turning off all the accessories including the a/c thermostat will allow your/my battery to cope up and recharge – for his next “duty”.

    That’s why my battery is still in good shape after more than 6 yrs I dunno?

    According to the link above in pointer #1 yes we should not do it. So to those who still turn on their engine with the aircon already on you are just cutting short the life expectancy of your aircon

Is it ok to leave the aircon on and turn off the engine?
