BELT PULLEY (WITHOUT A/C Clutch -N25-) REMOVING AND INSTALLING, SANDEN A/C COMPRESSOR
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2024 Audi S6 and 2024 Audi A6 Quattro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- The belt pulley is made of plastic and is sensitive to impact, therefore be especially careful when handling it.
- If the belt pulley overload protection is triggered, then the A/C compressor must be checked for ease of movement before replacing the belt pulley. If the A/C compressor is difficult to move, this must be replaced completely.
- If the drive plate overload protection was activated, the belt pulley can be rotated using the outer part of the drive plate so that the A/C compressor shaft and the hex fitting on the drive plate (inner part of the drive plate) do not rotate.
-- Remove the ribbed belt. Refer to [For engine(s) DPAA] RIBBED BELT, REMOVING AND INSTALLING / [For engine(s) DKMB, DLZA] RIBBED BELT, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
