Hi. My name is Wil. I have a 2000 XJR. As I was going home from work I turn the A/C off and I heard a loud noise like if something was caught in the engine or belts or something. I turned the A/C back on and it stops. So now when i turn my car off and restart it everything is fine for about ten minutes and that noise happens again so I have to turn the A/C on so it can stop. Im thinking it might be the compressor but not to sure this just happened to day about a few hours ago. Any replies will help alot.
Thanks,
Wil
Thanks,

Wil, this is just a hunch, but it could be the hub on your A/C compressor. However I assume the compressor is on the driver's side. If the rubber center section has disintegrated it allows the hub to bang around inside the pulley. It can make a hell of a racket. You could have a look at it with the engine off. If the rubber is broken away from the hub shaft you should be able to move the outer portion of the hub from side to side and it may make contact with the inside of the pulley. Obviously, if the hub is good you would have zero side to side movement. You could also look with the car running and turn the A/C on an off to see if the hub is working properly and engaging the compressor. If it is the hub, you will almost certainly need a new compressor.
