When I turn on my heat or AC, there is a very strange noise that comes from under the hood. Its similiar to a semi-truck using its jake-brake, but not as loud. At first i suspected the AC compressor but it makes the same noise with the heater on. It will make the noise every 10-15 seconds or so...pretty strange noise.
Anyone experience this or know what I'm talking about? Any certain thing i should be looking for? TIA
Climate control wierd noise...(ac and heat-93 legacy)

You say you get the same noise with the heater on -- is the defrost also on?
Cuz it really sounds like the air conditioning compressor.
If it happens in HEAT, BILEV, or VENT, then it's not the compressor. Probably. Otherwise it is.
