I had that problem too for a while, but it went away. Not sure what it was.

the clicking is from the mode control door closing when you select a/c operation and recerculation.also ou will hear a relay operating noise and sound from the compressor end plate make noise as it engages-all normal-no worries

AC pulley has a "dry clutch system" whenever you turn the AC on, the clutches engage making a clicking sound. Also, there is an AC relay that also clicks when you turb it on.
