Does it a bit on the 1st gens too, it is the idle being kicked up to compensate for the extra drag from the compressor...this is totally normal behavior, pretty much happens with any car, any manu...all the different automobiles I have owned over the years with air did this....

It is what it is...

I would hope they went to a variable displacement compressor. You cant even tell when they kick on.
