I have a 3.1L V6. When ever I turn on the A/C (low, high, max) a loud vibrating noise come form my A/c compressor. All the bolts and brackets are tightened down. Any ideas?

Compressor could be on it's way out.
If you want to pick up a little more power you should just get rid of the A/C .It would save some weight and drag on the motor.

I'd also just do an A/C delete personally. But honestly, I havnt run into this perticular problem before, so im at a loss.

My truck had a weird vibration coming from the AC when I first got it, the compressor was bad so I replaced it and problem was solved. Thats my first guess.

I think it's the compressor too. I've been wanting to take my A/C out for while anyways, now I just have a reason to.

Well you live up in NY so i guess it doesn't matter. But yea the compressor's going. At this point to keep it would mean you HAVE to do a R134 swap, which sucks ass.

less weight means you would go faster(a little bit)

I am not sure this is for a V6 though,better check first.Or you can dekete the compressor and use a shorter belt.
