Clunking Sound During Idle
Hey guys, here's another question, When I have the defrost on I hear a clunk about every 30 seconds, when I am sitting still. It is pretty loud.
I thought it was my hubs losing vacum and popping in and out.
But it seems only to happen when I have defrost on.
Anyone else? any Ideas?

its probably your AC compressor turn your ac on and listen for the sound too normally when defrost is on the compressor kicks on for some reason too

Defrost
Above 40 or 50 degrees, I think, the A/C compressor comes on to dry the air so defrosting or defogging is more effective.
