Angry A/C Compressor noises

Hey,

I am hearing some clicking and grinding, it sounds like it is coming from the compressor. I can see the plastic peiece spinning and stopping on the top. I havn't run the AC that much but I did last weekend on a long trip and now it is grinding and clicking, even with the AC off. ANy ideas please let me know.

Thanks

Read your owners manual the ac automatically operates in certain stages like Defrost and such. So whether you put it in AC or not it works. Sounds like the clutch could be going. If so they are easy to change. alittle time consuming but it can be done.

Thanks, I figured as much, I just hope I can get away with not replacing the whole thing.
