Josh did you DIY the compressor? I get some slight cricket/whistle from it sometimes when its started cold, and although my AC is cool, I know its more age at this point than mileage for me.
At $150 its not bad cost for the part and if its easy access for the most part I would consider it, or just pay an indy.
EDIT: Also to add, finally changed my fuel filter this weekend after dreading the big ass cover under the car for months - what a pain in the ass to drop that thing -
Fuel filter was replaced in 5 mins once it was dropped, but took an hour each time to get the cover off and on.
Not sure why people break the clips in the fuel lines, you just press in the quick connectors and the lines pop off, no tools needed - I also replaced the little piece of vaccuum hose which was pretty dry and brittle.
Next up is to get my passenger carrier replaced (aftermarket sometimes sticks so I bought a Genuine one) and do my window regulator slider clips and black window clips while its open - worked beautifully on the drivers side a few weeks ago.
