In Reply to: Sound from engine compartment on A/C activation posted by Chorobe on July 15, 2000 at 03:48:33:


I'm not sure this is normal but when I activate my A/C I can barely hear a low/deep whine which cycles to a slightly higher toned whine and then it starts all over again. When I turn the A/C off I don't hear it anymore. I don't seem to notice it when driving on the streets as opposed to the freeway. Any clues to whether or not this is normal or what is causing it? Thanks!
