AC 'Bubbling' Noise, Dash Squeaks V70-XC70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Bill Nugent on  Mon Sep 22 01:35 CST 2003 [RELATED]


My 72l mile v70 has over recent months developed a bubbling or popping noise emanating from what seems to be behind and below the center dash vents. It only happens when the AC is running or for a bit after the AC has been shut off. It almost sounds as if metal was expanding or contracting or the fluid in the pipes was boiling.

Anyone else have a similar noise, and if so, was anything done to eliminate it?

Also there is a god awful squeak from just inside or behind the dash vents - like two pieces of plastic rubbing together or a squeaky bed spring. Anyone find a good way to eliminate dash squeaks?

Thanks for your help.

Bill
