Hi,
Sorry if this topic has been posted before - I did a quick search but couldn't find anything.
I picked up a 2014 PHEV aspire recently (80k km on it when I got it).
After owning it for a few days I started to notice that there is an audible sound from the AC when it is on - only quiet enough to hear when the car is still (or when cruising on EV!). With the fan only on the noise is not present, it's only when AC is also on.
I would characterise it as a rustling or gurgling sound, or possibly a hissing/squealing sound (like a fluid being forced through a small aperture).
Is this noise familiar to others and is it anything to be worried about?
I can take a video recording and upload it if that makes it any easier to identify.
Cheers!
