It seems that my ac compressor has been leaking this browish substance for awhile, and now it's seems to making some weird kind of noise when the engine's running. Has anybody ever had this problem before???

does the a/c work? it sounds like you might be leaking refrigerant(r-134a) and an refrigerant oil mix because of a bad seal in the compressor...the weird noise may be bad bearings in the compressor or belt slippage because of the bad bearings or a mix of both....

Well that doesn't sound good, yeah the ac works and the refrigerant level is ok. I guess the only option would be to get the compressor fixed or take out the ac.

Is the sound like a rattling/whistling sound?
