I recently purchased a 03' tahoe 4x4 5.3l with 166k miles.
When I first start the truck turn the AC on and accelerate I hear a super loud and super strange noise coming from my AC (only happens when AC is on) the best way I can describe the sound is as if your shuffling cards, but it's extremely loud.
Like I said it happens when I accelerate and if I left off the pedal the sound goes away. It will last for a few miles or so then it won't come back until I restart the truck with the AC on.
AC works nice and cold with no issues. I also notice when the AC is on at idle I feel a noticeable vibration. I'm very use to this generation GM trucks and this vibration seems abnormal.
Hoping it's not the Compressor, any help or experience will be highly appreciated!
I found the exactly sound I'm dealing with in YouTube, here's the link. The only difference is the only time is makes that sound is under acceleration in drive only.
