Possible Solutions

Is it gurgling during the cooling cycle?

A gurgling sound may be heard as the freezer shuts off after a cooling cycle due to the refrigerant flowing through the tubes in the cooling system.
A gurgling sound may also be heard when the lid is open and/or closed. This is part of the cooling cycle.
Both are part of normal operation.

Is it gurgling when opening the lid?

A gurgling sound may be heard when opening and closing the lid due to water equalizing in the drain tube as air is forced through the tube.
This is part of normal operation.
This is more common during time of high humidity.
