Default #$%^ HELP!! A/C and BOOST!!! @#$%

Ok here is the problem:

im driving home as usual and my A/C is always off. the **** is turned toward the colder air. anyways im just driving and out of no where white colored gas comes out. at 1st i thought it was smoke and got closer, it was cold air mixing with the hott air, which made fog. so i pulled over to check what was up...nothing. the car isnt acting weird, coolant is fine, JUST the A/C is running and im not turning it on at all!!!!!

someone please help me!!! this should probably be posted in the eg and up forum too. i don't think it has anything to do with the boost. maybe a freon leak? but how do i figure where its coming from???

This usually happens when humid outside air mixes with cold evaporator. Your comp is engaged somehow. CHeck to see if it is cycling.

Open your hood and find the a/c comp. The pulley will turn on and off if the the comp is cycling. You can see it!
A/C comp is right in the front on civics

High humidity causes this and it's normal to see fog coming out of the vents. No worries.
