Re: AC compressor noise

It has a variable displacment type compressor that is rather expensive so I am hoping someone has some idea on how to stop this noise.

Thanks for any help.
if any air got in the system it was because the refrigerant was low, if the noise of the compressor is has changes to it check the clutch in the compressor.
