Whirlpool Refrigerator Popping Noise

Just bought this fridge new at Menards in april of this year. We were on a budget and I realize we get what we pay for, but why is it making a constant popping noise while the compressor is running? Its not during the defrost cycle though. It sometimes is very loud and constant, and sometimes very quiet and sometimes I don't hear the popping at all. It cools just fine, but the popping noise is driving me nuts sometimes. Is there a fix?Does anyone have or had the same problem that they have a solution for?? I have a service tech coming out Monday, but I have a feeling they will say its normal noise as the customer service rep told me over the phone, BUT THERE IS NO WAY THIS IS NORMAL NOISE I understand during defrost cycle, but not while its running, HELPFridgidaireFFTR2126LW7S# 4A23404573.

Open the freezer door and see if the sound is louder. Pull the machine away from the wall and remove the cover over the machine compartment. Hold the filter/drier in your hand and see if you can fee the popping in the refrigerant line. I think what you're hearing is the refrigerant expanding in the accumulator by the evaporator or in the evaporator itself.

I don't know why some machines will make that sound and others don't (I'm not sure the manufacturer knows either). I've noticed that some manufactures have added a 'muffler' in line with the filter/drier (high side) and some have added two mufflers, one on the low side.
