A/C noise
I have a 1998 E300 D and have noticed when I engage the A/C Compressor I hear what sounds like a rat a tat tat or a fan contacting plastic shroud. I checked....the fan is not hitting the shroud. The belt is not loose. After a closer look.....it appears the noise is coming out of the back of the compressor so I believe whatever I am hearing is coming from the internals of the compressor.....ANY HINTS?

You will need a new compressor soon, I´m sorry!
