I know exactly what noise you're talking about. While I was in for my 7500 mile maintenance check-up last week I asked the technicians to look at it. I can't remember exactly what the part is called but it's part of the AC compressor, and it had come loose. They didn't have the part in stock so I'll be going in next week to have it replaced. I'll post more info on it after it's repaired.
