my A/C will only work sometimes either on MAX or OFF!!
so i have a '98 528i m-sport...i'll have the temp down to 69 degrees F and have it on auto and it WILL NOT blow air...not even if i take it off auto and put the bars all the way up manually...it WILL NOT blow...UNTIL about driving the car for a half hour...then it will blow on max for about 10 seconds, then turn off...i took it to a mechanic who diagnosed the problem being the greenish white relay underneath the hood that controls the blower motor...before i go out and spend $90 on a relay, would this be the cause of the air not blowing?? thanks

Sounds like a typical FSU problem, Final Stage Unit, Final Stage Resistor.

Probably the EASIEST fix you'll ever perform. Enjoy it, many more harrowing, annoying, confusing, and maddening fixes will come your way soon.
