[s-cars] 95 S6 a/c compressor noise

[JenRob]

sean- also check the large cast mount that holds the accessory drives (a/c 
compressor)- it has the shaft  for the fan clutch. the bearing for the fan 
clutch shaft  failed on my s6. sounded a lot like the a/c compressor was 
going to explode.the mount can transmit sound to the compressor bolted to 
it. had to source recycled mount in my case- big $$ from stealer. just a 
possibility. -rob
