When i start up my car and turn my air on i hear a weird sound coming from the motor,like a moving grinding sound or something.Just when the air is turned on.Is this the compressor and should it sound like that.The car heats up fine.Also i get this hissing noise inside my car,coming from around the glove compartment or a little lower.It eventually stops after about 5 or 10 minutes.Its a little annoying.What is causing these problems and how could i fix it?

the air conditioning compressor is noisy with the versa and makes a grinding noise it is normal according to Nissan just turn it off and back on and the noise goes away and or will be greatly reduced. If you are still under warranty have your Nissan techs check it out. as for the hissing noise I don't know what cold be causing that condition.
