My AC line that comes around the exhaust manifold and meets the AC compressor is vibrating and making a rattleling noise. What's causing the AC line to vibrate? When I push the AC line down, the vibrating stops. If I pull it upwards, the noise comes back on. If I rev it the motor and comes back to rest, the noise comes on. This noise could be heard from the inside of the vehicle.

Thanks to those who reply.

allright, the line is most likely hitting somthing causing it to vibrate against the manifold or frame or somthing. see what it is hitting. if it is not hitting anything, you may be able to wrap it in somthing to stop it.

It's not hitting anything. Do you think my AC compressor is somewhat a little loose? Stupid question but who knows. I don't think wrapping it would help because I tried to stop it by holding it tightly and almost couldn't stop the shaking of the AC line.
