Default Knocking sound with A/C on (AU1 i6)

Hi everyone,

The girlfriend drove me into work today in her AU1 (i6) and when I got out I noticed a knocking type sound from the front of the car... obviously I freaked out a bit, but after a few minutes of fiddling I realised that turning the A/C off got rid of the knocking sound, and turning it back on made the knocking sound return.

Anyone else experienced this? Is the compressor faulty, or maybe some loose bolts somewhere?

Oh good then, I was hoping it wasn't something about to blow up and destroy everything
