Q: Weird noise coming from the A/C.

asked by on June 11, 2017

I took my car to the dealership & they said that I needed to replace the blend door actuator. It's been replaced but still gives me the same noise up entering & exiting the car. Also when I turn on the A/C. It makes the noise for about 2 minutes & then goes away.

My car has 147000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
