'00 p71 making weird noise

So i just recently bought a cv with low miles and in good condition. I had a full service tune up done to it consisting of new spark plugs, new boots, etc...

Now to the problem:

There are 2 noises that It is making. When i first turn the car on in the morning or after I havent driven it for maybe a day there is this loud humming noise coming form the engine. It's almost like a vibration I would say and when i give it a good bit of gas it will stop for like a minute or so. It eventually stops once my engine warms up but I would like to know whats causing that noise.

The other noise that it makes is very weird and I have no idea what it could be. When I am at a light and it changes, I push down on the accelerator and there is a water "swashing" back and forth noise around the ac unit. Now when i turn the A/C off sometimes it will stop after a bit but sometimes it still happens. The car runs smoothly, not rough at all, just wondering what it could be.

Another thing that ive heard is when i turn the feel to the far left/right i hear metal on metal grinding or something that doesnt sound good. Just wondering if they are all like that.

Ive started to hear a little bit of a knocking noise coming from the front driver side wheel when the brakes are applied firmly but not slammed. Thinking I might need new shocks but I figured you guys would know best.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Nick
