So last year it was the tensioner pulley that went out, now already this summer I have more A/C gremlins. I have searched and just want to make sure of what I think I know.
If the compressor pulley and belt wobble when the A/C is off the compressor pulley assembly is bad and can be replaced "simply".
If the compressor pulley and belt wobble when the A/C is switched ON the problem is in the compressor and the "best" fix is to replace the compressor?
I am experiencing the latter issue. Oh and with it I get a really bad squalling noise. I am pretty sure between the sight glass and the super cold air it was blowing prior to the wobble that my system is fully charged. After replacing my compressor will I have to recharge the system? Or is it not inline with the flow of refrigerant?
Thanks!
