Bro, I've PMed you.

I got similar problem last year.
Went to Riverview Auto in AMK, and they confirmed it is the compressor.
Even if you don't turn on your aircon or just in fan mode, the aircon compressor is still being driven, because it shares the same shaft as the alternator and radiator.
I was told that in my case it was likely the ball bearing of the aircon compressor, but you cannot replace just the ball bearing.
If not replaced, it may just failed one day, and the whole shaft will jam, stopping the alternator and radiator. And you car will overheat and without battery.
Riverview charge me around $750 (can't remember the exact).
BTW, it is not true that only TCM has the bracket, pulley, compressor, etc.
Any stockist will have them too.

This morning I dropped my wife off to work.. when she got out of the car she ask how come my car got noise.. so i got off to listen... there's this screeching sound coming from the car.. engage (haven move off yet) R, D or L slightly louder. The sound is like what one of the bros describe.. like some rotating part no oil.. and i also notice after 30K servicing, my A/C keep cutting in and out.. even when the temp is set at 28 degree.. when pick up or climbing slope, A/C cut in the car like suddenly rob of power, there will be a noticable but small jerk :crycry: wah lau eh...
Is this the same as what is being descibed in this thread?
