u touch the compressor?? or u touch the outdoor unit? the compressor is inside the outdoor unit, u wont be able to touch it unless u open the panel.
but since u say vibrating, then means the compressor is kinda still working. fan should turn, if no hot air blows out, then sth is wrong with the refrigerant circuit.
did u service your air cond before? frequent use everyday? when the refrigerant gets less, the compressor will compress the refrigerant more, resulting in a higher compression ratio, and compressors usually fail faster.. so the loud bam, probably is from burst pipe due to high compression ratio.. that's my guess..
they probably will suggest u to buy a new one since its ady 5 years old..

hahaha.. most of the air conds ads saying 50% energy saving.. all bluff ppl 1 la..
wat inverter inverter tis tat.. u need to read their small print on how they claim the 50% energy saving part..
inverter unit usually consumes the same amount of electric as non-inverter units during hot noon or hot days.. the effect of saving for inverters only shine during cooler days or night time.. that's true for general inverter air conds la.. maybe now got newer tech, then need to read out more bit..
one good thing about inverter is, your temperature wont fluctuate that often. becz when your set temperature is reach, non-inverter units will cut off the compressor so that it will maintain the room temperature u set.. once the temperature exceeds the set temp, then the compressor kick in again to compress the refrigerants. sth like your fridge, sometimes u hear it's very noisy, sometimes it's quiet.. inverter unit doesn't cut off the compressor, it just runs slower..
bro, are you an engineer or technician? you know a lot man! wat inverter inverter tis tat.. u need to read their small print on how they claim the 50% energy saving part..
