This may or may not be the solution for you, but check this out for starters. Some oil filter gaskets are not well bonded to the filter, and as a result, when you remove an old filter, sometimes the old gasket will stick to the engine. If you don't notice, and install a new filter while the old gasket is still stuck there, the new filter will not seal properly and you will have a serious leak. If this turns out to be the case for you, simply remove the old gasket, inspect, and reinstall the new filter with its own gasket. If the filter's gasket looks damaged, or deformed in any way, you're best off buying and installing a new filter. (My personal opinion and advice: don't waste your money on cheapie filters, they're not worth it. Stick with a brand name you trust)

What is that noise There is a noise coming from the basement when the air is on There is a new filter but the noise seems to be coming from that spot It's not a terrible noise just loudness?
As the filter was replaced recently it could be just a loose filter housing that is causing the unit to "rattle" when it is running. Rest your hand on different places near to the filter on the casing of the air conditioning unit to see if you can locate the cause of the new noise. If the noise can easily be stopped just by pressing on the filter housing - or somewhere else on the casing near to it - then the person who changed the filter needs to come back and ensure that the new filter is correctly seated in its housing and that all the screws are properly tight.
