anyone here any good with car AC's? The crusty Beemer runs decent enough still i want to get my ac working again. Lines hold pressure, it pushes air and sounds like a carpet stuck in a vacuum. Whats the dealio? Heater works great though. Too bad its 90 outside
Hey srh, my guess is compressor losing bearings. Hub (the ASE) says it could be the evaporator core with debris in the box that houses the core. He said something about mice building nests.

Cabin air filter or blend door actuator not routing air correctly are a couple possibilities. Edit: check to make sure the compressor clutch is engaging when the AC is turned on.

Is the compressor clutch engaging and is the noise coming from inside the car or at the compressor itself?
