Hi all,
I haven't driven my car in over 2 months.
I started it last week and when the A/C was turned on there was a hissing/metallicy type noise coming from the centre vents. In my mind, the noise sounds like a sword being sharpened on a sharpening wheel or a wheel rubbing against something metal as it turns. Its not high pitched and is a slow noise.
I've checked the blower motor and it seems to be running fine.
I've also visually checked the compressor and that is running fine too; clutch engages when A/C button is pressed. I've yet to put a stethoscope on the compressor to check if the noise is origination from there.
I've checked the belts also.
The A/C has stopped blowing cold.
I'm stumped guys and would appreciate your help in this matter
Thanks
Jithu
