Coming from passengers side, near belt. It is not loud, but you can notice it. Car drives fine, but there was a moment when I was driving I smelled a rubbery smell. I had AC on, quickly turned off. Went back to work, as I was leaving I tried to put AC on and there was no cool air coming out. Not sure if it is related.

Same person who posted this. I guess I did not really ask a question, so here it is, is the gurgling/bubbly noise something to be concerned about, I know I need to address the problem but I do not want to make it worse by driving it to my dads (he use to work for Honda as a mechanic)?

Already described it to him, but cannot see him until tomorrow and he basically told me to do some research. So here I am trying to find some possible reasons why this could be happening. I feel as though it has something to do with my AC, since what I described in my post. I was on lunch break as I was driving back to work I smelled a robbery smell and then quickly turn my AC off and looked around to see if any smoke came out from my car, and there was nothing so I continued to drive back to work. When I drove home I tried the AC and no cool air was coming out. I am a little over my next service date for an oil change, but oil is not low, and my gauge for my temperature seems to be fine as it stays in the middle. Not sure what other information you may need but I will provide if needed.

Hello, I am Danny.

Have you taken a look under the hood at the engine? Just curious if you maybe broke a belt on the A/C compressor. That could be the smell (broken belt) and why the A/C not working properly. I have also attached a belt link for you. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
