Does anyone know if the clutch is a replaceable part in the compressor?

I think Vipfto said he had one. I was going to buy it but mine miraculously kicked in one day 0.0. Might be worth dropping him a line though

God no.. then you gotta let all the gas out etc. Mahoosive pain in the ass.

Compressor is one nut! (no pun)

You & me both. I once stripped a door down to nothing only to find out the squeak I was chasing could have been solved a by a quick hit of WD40 to the hinge

Did vip pm you bout his ?
Compressors arnt easy to come by
How much to change the clutch out bennoz
I've got one but don't know how well it works ac guy said it wasn't working so swaped it out but befor I swaped it out I turned the ac on and it kicked in ( till I went to check the seals on the ac pipes )
Between buying and shipping changing the clutch out seams like the best idea would prob last longer then a 2nd hand compressor to

All you gotta do is pop the 2 belts off (Alternator belt has to come off to get the air con belt off) then undo 1 nut & pop the clutch assembly off the compressor unit.

Seriously a 10 minute job.

Probably don't even need to touch the alt belt, or you'd need to do is loosen the AC/PS belt and pop it off the pulley, doesn't need to come right off.

no sure about where to get clutches gpx, I know camskill have them, but maybe Kempy's might be a better idea.

Found this website a while ago http://www.Findapart.com.au

you enter a request for a part, it goes out to wreckers and anyone who can help that then send you an email with an offer or requesting further information. Got a offer for a used one for $225 and one cheaper, the guys were telling me they had to be tests by website regs but I'm not sure about that.

ive got a spare ac compressor i can sell as the ac guy said mine wasnt working, but befor i swaped them over i tryed it and it worked and realised later that the conection pipes were leaking

so not sure if they can be tested off the car or not , if they can i could have it tested for any one that wants one
