Have a local pro check this out it may be a relay stuck or something like that. But it should be checked soon

If the a/c was overcharged it wouldn' t cool right but it may be something like a/c fluid settling after using. That is why I said have a local guy listen to it. If the fuel filter was wrong it would probably leak.

Not that I can think of as I can't hear it. If it's loud enough he should give an answer
