Hope someone can help tract the source of this (bearing ?) noise. I think its the ac clutch but the noise is intermittent and happens with the ac clutch engaged or disengaged so i'm suspecting the ps pump however the noise is constant when the steering is turned , seems to have no effect on noise volume .
When idling the noise will come and go independent of whether the ac is engaged or not . Seems that if it was the ac clutch the noise would stop when engaged and if it was the compressor itself noise would stop when clutch was disengaged. I ve seen the noise continue through the ac cycling on and off and then just stop for a few minutes only to come back
using a long handle to my ear it sounds like the ac.. any suggestions ? explorer has over 200k so could be anything
