Hello,
I'm having a problem (reincident), that I would like to know if someone had a similar problem like mine or has a clue of what this is, it happened for the second time:
usually the days are getting colder, so I haven't been using the AC often. this weekend though was a bit hot, so I used the AC. On the second day driving the car and using the AC, the engine, when accelerating, starting to make something like an howling / whining sound; even if the car was stopped and the AC off, you would hear the howling sound everytime time I accelerated. Today, the noise as stopped and, coincidence or not, the AC stopped working, it is just blowing warm air instead of cold. Last month the same thing happened, I went to Citroen, and they told me it was the AC that had too much gas, it should have max 400 grams of gas, it had 664 grams (at that time, the explanation sounded like bullsh**t to me). Now, a month later it happened again.
Does someone have the slight clue of what it might be??!!
I found two videos on youtube where the sound recorded is similar to what happened to my Cactus:
