Sporadic and confusing rheem ac unit issue

Hello, I'm going to ask this question because I'm out of options and so are the technicians. Last summer, after having a blower motor replaced, the next day I started having trouble with my ac unit. Sporadically, it will start to make a grinding noise almost like a garbage disposal sound for 15 minutes, the compressor with turn off and the fan will run for 15 minutes, and then the compressor will re-engage. The entire unit was replaced and also a start capacitor was put on for low voltage. It worked great for two month before shutting down for the winter. I started it this year and the same problem is back. Any suggestions ? I have had about 15 visits from technicians and everyone is stumped. The unit can run great for days and then the issue happens and there is no telling when it will occur again. Also this is a rheem unit. Prior to the replacement unit and blower motor replacement I had the exact same unit installed when the house was purchased and it worked great for 4 years.
