When the motor starts up to cool the fridge, there is a bunch of clanging noises that can go on anywhere from 3-50 seconds. While annoying, I can deal with that. What I'm having more trouble with is when the motor stops. It stops with a REALLY LOUD banging noise. It literally shakes my apartment and can easy be heard by my neighbors. That LOUD bang only a second or so. This has been going on for several months now. From what I've read, it sounds like I have a problem with the compressor. It also sounds like the fridge will work fine for the next few years, besides the noise. Please tell me if I'm wrong.Is there anything I can do to minimize the banging noises so the neighbors put down their pitchforks? I can't really afford to toss a working fridge and spend a couple thousand on a new one. :(Thanks!
