When turning on the air there is a thump (not always). The other night turned the air on and there was a squealing sound then the card died. This has not happened since. Air is not getting cold. I've been told it could be the supine belt or the compressor is going bad.

I currently have had my air conditioner die on me. When you turn it on it sounds like its working but nothing comes out. As soon as the air conditioning went my car started squealing when I accelerate.

The a/c compressor clutch might have locked up it should be free spinning when not engaged but could cause a belt to squeal and possiblly break if locked up

Squealing noise when accelerating for 4-8 seconds once level speed reached and again when under pressure, no loss of power or over heating. sounds like air escaping at pressure or metal rubbing together....

Try spraying some "anti-squeal" (in an aerosol from any parts supply shop) onto the serpentine belt. If the noise stops you have identified the source. Also lube the spring-loaded device that tensions the belt.

Thumping in front end, host of other issues

The thumping sound like the U-joints in the front wheels are bad. If the brakes lock with ABS sytem, then one or more wheel sensors are probably bad. As for the RPM's, one of the intake air sensors may be bad, either the IAT or MASS sensor. Hope this helps
