do peopel get a loud noise when the a/c is on? i told the tech once, he said it was normal (as usual). even though i would think a/c do make some kind of noise, but on the Z its especially loud.

here is a tsb that addresses the problem, i dont know if it is relavent to mine?

Try sitting in a new Z they have on the lot and ask them to start it and turn on the AC... If it does not make the same noise as yours I would have them look into it..

 

it's normal.. your alternator's working over time.

 

I've noticed the same sound. I just figured it was normal.

 

its normal...

 

Depending how loud it is, its probably normal. When you turn on your a/c you will hear a relay click near the engine and the cooling fan will start to spin and the condensor will kick in. Any car with a/c makes these noises.
