Another NOISE question

[2kbluevette]

Let me make my first post here....
My 2K 80K coupe developed a loud clacking noise, that goes out when I turn off the A/C.
I believe the clutch of the compressor is making it.
1- did this happaned to any of you?
2- is there an easy fix without taking it to the "stealership"?
3- Could the clutch be replaced without disconnecting the compressor completly, thus noefilling of freon, etc?
4- any suggestions????:ugh

First of all, 2kBlueVette, let me welcome you to the CAC! We're glad you found us.

I'm sorry to hear about your AC woes. AC usage isn't exactly an issue for me in Colorado at the moment- we awoke to 3 inches of snow this morning. I'm afraid I don't have the answers to your questions, but I'm sure C4C5Specialist will be along shortly, and he may have some insights for you.
