Air conditoner compressor squeal S70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Patrick on  Sat Apr 20 04:26 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I notice that when I turned off the air conditioner and wait approx 30 second, a high pitch squeal comes from the compressor in the engine compartment. The squeal's duration is about 3 seconds and sounds like a squeaky disk brakes. The compressor squeal comes up almost immediately when I first turn on the air condition. Do I need worry about it? Thanks.

Air conditoner compressor squeal V70-XC70 1998

I have the same sympton on my '98 V70 with timing and duration. It began after I had the system overhauled under warranty about a year & ½ ago. I though it was coming from the brake booster, but soon deduced that it was the AC compressor. Anyway, as long as it's blowing cold air (needed in Clearwater,Fl), I don't think it's worth getting looked at.
