    Great! A positive result at last. However, is the noise exactly the same? As in, does it still spool up like an Alien Ray Gun preparing to obliterate the earth (pardon my warped sense of humour), or are you referring to a smooth, albeit noisy spool up, like a mini jet engine with a hush kit?

    The video from under your Prius certainly sounded very odd (Alien Ray Gun)......that's definitely not a normal Prius A/C or ICE operation sound.

    It started sounding the exact same way now I've used it a couple days and now the sound is gone maybe the oil and the refrigerant needed to work through the system a little bit more
