Hi all,
I hope you can help with this issue that arose this morning.
I now have a clicking noise when the air conditioner is on. This is what happened: I started the car to go to work this morning. I turned on the A/C (fan setting 1) after about 20 seconds of idling. I back out of the drive way with no problem, as soon as I shift to 1st and go forward (I get this clicking noise that increases with engine speed) Everything is working fine, but I now get this noise. At some point when I reach a speed high enough, I don’t hear it anymore (engine may be to loud at this point). When I decelerate, I don’t think I hear it at all or as much (as the engine is still loud when decelerating). Any ideas?
I turned off the A/C for my commute, but I only continued to test this at stop lights, and it happened everytime.
Is this a sign that something may be on it’s way out?
Thanks,
Chris
