My air conditioner is working however the clutch is not engaging fully. You can see it pull in but appears to be slipping. The compressor was replaced four years ago by the dealer. Can you just replace the clutch or do you have to replace the compressor and clucth as one assembly?

Hi there,

I believe that the clutch assembly is a serviced item and you should be able to just do that.
