either one sounds like a solution. im going on a 500 miles trip this weekend. anything visually i can look for on the evaporator? to me personally it sounds like bearings in the blower but i can be wrong. any chance it can be linked to my slipping clutch on my compressor?

a/c compressor clutch slipping
