Noisy Air Compressor
I have a 1994 Honda Prelude Si with a very noisy air compressor. It makes a huge whining noise. The A/C blows cold air, but the noise is loud and quite embarrassing. Where should I look for the cause of the problem? How can I fix this?

I have heard it is either the belt or the bearing in the pulley. I have also heard that if it is the bearing in the pulley, it might be best to replace the compressor. I haven't taken it in for a diagnostics yet. I know a/c work is very expensive.

bearings tend to whine/drone/annoy, clutch assy is definately the way to go as well while it's apart. i have about 5 of these ac comprssors in the shop that are known to be good. make an offer if you like, but i'm situated in canada. these comprssor in canada go for about 500 easy new

Re: (doeboi365)
