Okay so I need to make this brief because I'm about to go out to dinner.

I had a shop in my area install these two parts for me the other day. Right before I get home I start to notice a weird sound. Its similar to the whining of a belt and cooing of a pigeon (weird I know).

Now I first noticed this sound when I was slowing down to stop at a red light, and noticed it every time after that when I came to a stop.

When I got home I linked this sound to my A/C. When I turn it on you can hear a belt squeak on the outside of the car, and the same grind/coooing on the inside but only briefly. Also I can hear the grind/cooing sound when I turn the A/C off, its more prevalent and louder when I turn it off.

I also believe that my Cold A/C is broken, although it's hard to tell because it is winter, and cold in PA.

Any ideas? I'm certainly no mechanic and the obvious answer is that something with my A/C or compressor or something is shot, but why would that have happened after the installation of these parts?

Thanks in advance.

 

Oh man, no replies? After a 3 hour dinner?!

 

If your ac is messed up maybe they damaged your ac hard line? I know that a lot of short ram intakes utilize the hard line bracket for things like the air box.

 

^ Okay thank you, I'll bring that up as a possible cause.
