Popping noise while A/C in on? RX 500H
So when I have my A/C running AND im parked in EV mode- there is a popping noise coming from the front of the car. Its in no particular rhythm- it can happy 10 times in a minute or 2-3 times in a minute.
If the engine turns on, the noise goes away.
If I turn the A/C off, the noise goes away.
The A/C is cooling fine. However this noise is definitely new- I sit and take work calls in the car all the time for 23000+ miles and have just started hearing this noise recently.
Is something loose? Any idea what direction to point my dealer in?
The reason I ask is cause dealers tend to be 100% clueless in fixing anything that doesnt throw a code and they need to be hand held to figure out a fix or else they tell you "working as intended" lol
