Default hello/question!

Hello id first like to say hello to everyone in the community! I am a new 318ti owner and im excited to learn more about it! now then.

I have a simple problem it seems to be my AC or AC belt? When ever I use my AC I get this really weird noise coming from the front of the car. You cant really hear it outside the car but inside its rediculously loud, its sort of like a loud wooping noise if that makes sense. Id appriciate any help at all!

Thanks in advance!

Lemonz.

welcome to the Forums, and have you changed your belt and seen if that makes a difference?? You can also try a simple squeak lube stuff they sell in a can at autozone and if you notice that the problem goes away you should change your belt regardless.
