Is the CRV very noisy?

CRV is not very noisy. The reasons for the increasing engine noise of CRV are as follows: 1. Abnormal noise from the car air conditioning compressor: As a high-speed rotating working component, the air conditioning compressor has a relatively high probability of failure, with abnormal noise being a common issue. There are many reasons that can cause abnormal noise from the compressor. For example, damage to the compressor's electromagnetic clutch or severe internal wear of the compressor can produce abnormal noise. 2. Compressor electromagnetic clutch: The compressor often operates under high load conditions, shifting from low to high speeds, so the requirements for the electromagnetic clutch are very high. Moreover, the electromagnetic clutch is generally installed close to the ground and frequently exposed to rain and mud. When the bearing inside the electromagnetic clutch is damaged, it will produce abnormal noise.
