Would seem that the Honda Dealer Techs up in Canada are even worse than then one down here in the USA -- did not think that was possible.
But reading the above post -- I am actually was not surprised it is still not working correctly.
Your average Dealer Tech "Does not have a clue" about AC !!
Your average local garage Tech often know little more - just enough to get by with the occasion re-charge.
Not to have checked the Pressures at the first sign of an A/C issue, especially one that presents with "Strange noises" is simply inexcusable.
I have to wonder how much DYE they put in the system, and how well they flushed it out.
Anyway, they finally found the leak, replaced the Compressor (and I assume the Dryer and filter), checked for a good vacuum, and then refilled -- to some pressure, which may or may not be correct.
So the question is, why are you still getting that noise ??
Most obvious guess - without being there, or seeing what they did -- they did not add any refrigerant oil, or they added the wrong type.
