Air Conditioning problem 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 102000 miles
I have a 2001 PT with the 2.4 L engine-Auto trans.
My AC compressor clutch has become noisy when the heater is in the defrost position. Mechanic advised this is causing the noise from the AC clutch. My AC works fine so I would rather replace just the clutch rather than the complete compressor.
My question
What is the process for replaceing just the clutch on the compressor? My mechanic has not performed this prochedure in the past and I told him I would try to find out the steps to replace the clutch if it could be done without removing the compressor . If the compressor has to be removed than I would rather replace the complete compressor rather than just the clutch.
