    yup, ganyan sa akin, usually yan ang difference ng replacement na expansion valve sa original part, dinig mo ung hiss, pero dont be alarmed, its just to remind you na its working good!

    mine freezes well kaya ok naman....

    If you're talking of the hissing sound coming from the blower scroll yung nasa dashboard, it is not normal to hear a sound from there.

    1.Please check your evaporator , tingnan mo kung malinis, pag puno ng dirt yan magko-cause ng hissing sound hanggang maging whistling sound yan dahil clogged na ang daanan ng cold air.

    2. Check your blower scroll assembly , kung may mga dumi na yan puede rin yang magin cause ng hissing sound.

    3. Check your flexible ductings (yung dinaanan ng cold air from evaporator) baka may mga barado na yan.

    Hi again, true that hissing sound came from the working expansion valve but little did I know it's also a sign of of leakage in the evaporator, I have it fixed already, thanks all.
