But that goes double for ANY component lacking lubrication. It is not going to get better, the longer it runs. If it is low on oil in the AC system, I don't see it quieting down after 20 seconds. That sounds more to me like something getting pressure engine oil, but even then 20 seconds is a long time for oil to "reach" it.
They have so many different types of pre-lubed, sealed bearings in different components, it's hard to say.
