Q: How to fix Unusual noise and metallic grinding when A/C is on in Peugeot BOXER?

Replacing the cracked pipe with a new revision (often with an additional vibration damper) and a mandatory inspection and possible replacement of the engine mounts. Adding rubber pads for AC cable clamps. Instead of an expensive original aluminum pipe, specialized air conditioning plants can 'cuff' a flexible (rubber) hose in place of the broken section. The rubber cable dampens vibrations better and is 3x cheaper.
