Well, the compressor clutch was on its last leg. I had a friend that is supposed to help with the ac work come over and do the evacuation. We were going to do everything this weekend, but the clutch was not having it. I had him evac the system, I disconnected the lines, and put the new compressor on...

It was mainly audible when coming to a stop, stopped in gear, or idling in park. It was random. First thought is th...
