Only speaking from experience, but I've only had a groaning expansion valve when the refrig charge was low. I would bet you have a leak somewhere. (If so, soon you won't even have a groan, much less cold air coming out of your vents.) Likely culprits??? Pick one:
1)the expensive evap core.... ugh--- $1300 +
2)inexpensive schrader valves on the high and low pressure hook-ups (have them check this first-- it's a cheap fix, which often goes un-noticed because when the system is being pressure checked, with the charging hookup in place, it's impossible to detect a leak here)
3) sight glass on the receiver drier leaking-- put a little spit on it (it's under the front grill-- remove it to inspect)
4) a host of other high and low pressure hoses.
Good luck
