99.5 jetta AC compressor clutch pulley locked up:
I replaced the serp belt because it failed, then noticed the AC outer pulley was locked up. I could turn the inner clutch assembly with the 14 mm nut with no problem. So do I need to replace compressor, or can he clutch assm. be repaired on car?
Thanks

Compressor?

I have a compressor for sale if you need one. Did you say you could turn the center? If so the pulley must be binding somewhere. Maybe a broken clutch surface jamming inside. That still would just engage the clutch. Not sure . ..

too bad I just bought a A4 compressor on Vortex. It has not shipped yet so I don't know if it is for real or not.

My e-mail is

Please send details, it needs to fit a 2000 jetta
