If I disconnect the battery for 1 minute, then reconnect the battery the a/c works perfectly, but only for a day or 2. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

Very common on close model years is the clutch air gap too large and couldn't be easier to fix if so. You don't even need to take the belt off to remove one shim. If too large it would respond to a tap on outer plate when it should be engaged and if not more investigating as to why not, T   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
