    Got a very noticeable whine when HVAC is on defog and when on AC. No whine when on outside air venting. AC seems a little slower than usual to cool down.

    Bearing ?
    Compressor?

    More than likely the ac blower motor. Take out the glove box and the cabin filter. Turn on ac and see if noise is coming from there.

    It's probably the rubber in the a/c clutch that came loose and it's slipping. Your gona need to change de a/c clutch if it's that

    I have been getting a "whine" from the compressor for years now. It happens when everything under the hood is very heat soaked. For instance, if I spend a lot of time idling with the a/c on, then some times I get compressor whine.
