The noise is not loud and I live on a cul-de-sac.
I have assumed the sound is normal because I've heard similar sounds while operating control valves on hydraulic backhoes.
That must have made for an interesting time when taking out the old accumulators. I use that bleeder to release system pressure before servicing anything on the SLS.

I doubt you have any air left in there and believe that the noise you're hearing is normal. I am now jealous of your working AC AND your quiet cul-de-sac location.
