Good morning,

If you mean a gurgling noise, that comes from air in the system. I would have the system checked and bled for all air out of the system.

Does the heat and AC system work?

Yes, the air works great and the heat works if you turn it up to 80 or so.

Okay, have the system checked for air. Otherwise, the heater core will have to be replaced which will be an expensive repair.
