Smaller txv will give much better control. Larger valves tend to hunt more and be unstable.

Eugenethejeep has a great option too. Add some gas and see what happens.

If it starts making ice better then you were low on charge.
If its the same after adding and you have 25suction which is...

First off...
I hope you put stubbys on the machine and not gauges with hoses. If you did, then you compromised the critical charge especially connecting the high side.

If you did, I would start...

Does the noise occur when it starts making ice?

Usually like these guys said, its bearing issues and then the auger will wander to the side and score the evaporator.
Pull the auger out and check...

Seeing the cabinet not turning back on until +18F is definitely a problem.

The auger gets scored due to the upper or lower bearings failing.

When the bearings start going, it allows too much play and the auger moves and is able to touch/score up the evap barrel.
