Hello,
My wife's a/c compressor has started making a loud clicking noise when clutch is engaged.
It appears to be 1 click per rotation and increases with rpm's.
Any ideas to what's causing this, and what to do about it ?
I've read that 134a has oil in it, is it possible that the system is just a little low on freon/oil and that is making the noises ?
