Default A/C Problems

So my A/C does not blow near as hard as it used to, and as this became noticeable i realized that my compressor is turning on and off every 7-8 seconds and its making a loud whistling noise half of the time. Anyone know what this is? A bad compressor or maybe just low on freeon?? any help wpould be great. Thanks

It could be either, checking the refrigerant first will be the less expensive of the two.

---------------------------------
It's not actually Freon. Freon was DuPont's trade name for a range of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) refrigerants, r134a is a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC).
