Sounds like its probably a relay clicking which means its working so wouldnt worry unless something goes wrong!!

I have the same car with the same problem. Before you start the car turn the heater temperature gauge round to hot then start it and it shouldnt click. I know this dont solve the problem but im guessing its the fan getting stuck on something when starting the car with the heaters round to cold.

Hi I have the exact same problem on the same model. Did you ever manage to find out what it was or get it fixed? Thanks
