Kenwood American Fridge Freezer Problems

Options
Hi all,

I have a Kenwood KSBSX17 for around 1 month now....

It makes loads of weird noises this will happen a few times over a period of 10 minutes

Sorry for the poor noise quality :)

Gurgling noises ( we dont have an ice/ water dispenser) happens over 5 to 10 minutes

A whirring noise which last for around 15 - 20 minutes
https://instaud.io/3U2d

A higher pitch whining noise which lasts for 10 - 15 minutes
https://instaud.io/3U2e

In the past hour these noise have all occurred so there is almost a constant noise (maybe 5 - 10 minutes silence)

Randomly a loud click/bang which sometimes wakes me up.

Is this normal?
Cheers

    Frost free fridge freezers can make some strange noises if you are not used to them. As well as the usual compressor noise & gurgling gas there may be as many as 3 fans going plus ice cracking that sometimes sounds like a gun shot.

    It's difficult to tell if yours is abnormally loud from the clips. I've been to appliances where the owner has said they wake them up only to find a fridge making perfectly normal noises.
    Tall, dark & handsome. Well two out of three ain't bad.
