Default Noisy aircon

I own an MA XR5, which has been making strange noises when the aircon is on. It's a whirring type noise and is quite noticeable in the cabin. Has anyone else experienced this and, if so, please tell me it didn't require replacement of the 4 year old compressor.

Had a similar noise in our XR5 recently. Was the power steering unit moving on the bracket.

It only makes the noise with the aircon switched on, though.
