Every time I cruise SLEX at 100kph, or accelerating to my cruising speed, I always hear the compressor whistling. I thought I had my windows are ajar, but they aren't.
I concluded that it was the compressor when I heard the sound then switched the a/c off. The whistling was gone, then when I turned it back on and it whistled again.
The whistling is intermittent it only happens when the engine speed is around 2,500-3,000rpm. My hunch is it happens when the compressor kicks in at the engine speeds I mentioned.
Also, when in low speed I noticed that the compressor is a bit noisier than my engine, and it robs engine power as well. In tagalog, parang ang bigat nung loko.
When parked, I noticed that the compressor makes a sound. I'm not sure how to type or describe the sound it's like a wooden gun when I was kid where it rattles. I'll just post a video when I get the chance.
Another thing, it's not cold when the sun is at its highest point unlike in night time where it's very very very cold.
I hope you could help me sirs, ma'ams.
Thank you.
