What is going on!??
As I drove home tonight I heard loud "TICK.......TICK" sounds coming out of my engine bay, I got very worried so I stoped and poped my hood, My compressor "I have a V-Belt system" was making the sound.
What it would so is the center part of the compressor would spin for a few second and then a big TICK sound would occur and it would stop spinning, the belt would keep spinning but the center part itself stoped movng. Then a few seconds later the big TICK sounds would happen again and it would start spinning again, it was doing this until I turned off the car.
Can someone please tell me what the heck happened?
