Bad noises when the A/C is on.
That just means its time for a new compressor, right?
I drive this car 2-3 times a year. I'm trying to sell it, but I'd like to get problems like that taken care of...
If I have it replaced, I lose all my freon, yes? I just had it charged recently, too.

Could just be the clutch getting noisy too. Is it still getting cold? You shouldn't lose your refrigerant, they can draw it out and then reinstall it after repairs, should you need a compressor.

Yeah, its as cold as ever... although thats hard to say because of the weather.
When I turn the AC on, it sounds like someone dropped a handful of BB's into it.
Its actually made some noise for years, but all of a sudden BAM - very loud.

I am really not an A/C expert. Can anyone else chime in and help?
