TURNING OFF AC BEFORE ENGINE SHUTDOWN? S70

The issue is ice buildup and potential mildew etc.

Evap can handle it but mildew over the years is unhealthy.

When going home (when the car will rest a long time, in contrast to stopping at a coffee shop for 5 min), I turn off the AC 1 minute before home, set blower on hi to blow off any moisture. While doing this I lower the window to get fresh air from outside.

Just my 2 c.
