    How do you remove AC clutch from compressor?

    I removed the 10mm bolt but can't get the pulley off, even hitting it with a hammer from the back. What I've read is it shoudl just come off, is it pressed on? I hit it pretty good from the back, also tried some pry bars from the back. I came here when those didn't work thinking it might be...

    My 2002 P5 AC was getting louder- clicking and chirping while idleing -with the AC off so I had it on my radar. Then the wife came home from a longer drive with the AC on it was grinding pretty good. I disconnected the belt and could feel a tiny amount of play on the pulley but actually not...

    Headlights dim and bright. Why?

    Mine does the same thing. The lights go dim for 1/2 a second, then back to normal. Something must be drawing current while cruising because if I use the power windows the same thing happens, or if I close the power sunroof they dim for a second. I know if you have the vent on the windshield...
