Why would turning on the air conditioner cause the catalytic converter to rattle?
AnswerTurning on the air conditioner causes increased engine load. This load can trigger a faulty ignition part to cease operating, resulting in a misfire and vibration. If there is an internal problem with the catalytic converter or the heat shield is loose it will vibrate. Note that misfires greatly accelerate the death of a catalytic converter. More likely (if this is a GM truck) is bad valving internal to the Air Conditioning Compressor. It varies load so quickly that the belt tensioner shakes violently and that creates both a noise and a vibration.another answerIt could be the clutch on ur a/c that is rattling have it checked
