Air conditioner seems to be working just fine and cool's great. Just noticed though that it does not seem to cycle off and the compressor just keeps on all the time. Is this normal? Because on my other cars, the air conditioner seems to cycle off from time to time as soon as the desired temperature is reached. Right? Thanks in advance.

If you have automatic climate control then yes that would happen. Some AC compressors just run all the time unless the pressure gets too high or to low of pressure.
