My AirCon makes a hissing sound from time to time. Of course, when I got a mechanic have a listen, it wouldn't do it. Apart from carrying a mechanic around with me at all times, does anyone know how to cure this:

AirCon switched on (minimum temp, fan level 2), cruising along at 60ish, slow down to 50ish and then accelerate back up to 60ish. As the car accelerates, the aircon produces a hissing sound for a couple of seconds and then stops. Any ideas?
