" ...  it doesn’t make noise until warmed up. ... It’s the exact same noise that is described as a “warble”. ... It’s probably happening to more people but they don’t realize it with the ac compressor and fans running it’s hard to hear. ... This was installed on a 2014 Acura MDX at 105k miles and only a couple thousand miles later I started hearing the noise.  ...  "
comment
" ...  This is the second kit I have gotten and both make the same exact sound and it's annoying as hell. ... The dying OEM pump and belt never made noise anywhere near this and some people could likely tolerate it I however cannot. ... The bearings in the pumps have a high failure rate and the noise isn't present until warmed up.  ...  "
