I've been hearing noises coming from the engine bay.
Linked are two videos where you can hear it. If you have an idea as to what it could be, please let me know.

I have been having AC issues, but the dealership only replaced a tensioner, rear evaporator, and AC blower. I have a feeling that it could be the AC compressor going out.

The noise is not always present. It occurs more often with AC and/or air recirculate turned on, but I have noticed it when they were turned off.

If it makes the noise with the AC off, then it's not the compressor. But it could be the compressor clutch.
 
This was fixed by the dealership by replacing the AC compressor.
