MK7 GTI ac compressor stuck on
I recently started getting a terrible noise from the passenger side of the engine bay. It sounds like a pump running dry or what I would imagine bad bearings inside the water pump would sound like. Long story short i realized it’s the ac compressor clutch not disengaging. The pulley that the belt is on and the center section spin together regardless if the ac is on or off. Shutting it off and turning the temperature up does not do anything. I’m wondering if it’s gone and I need a new one or if there is another fix. Also if there is a way to manually disengage it so that I can at least stop the noise. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.
