of course, being SAFE about doing this but can you place your hand on the compressor to confirm the vibration is coming from the compressor... 



I assume you can look at the two pullies and confirm they are not bent or out of round... 



Been so long since i have had my AC working, I dont know what it felt like LOL

Could be - but I bought the compressor new about 5 yrs ago and it has seen limited use...

Could be a bad compressor, one side could be failing? so one side could be providing enough pressure to run the A/C ?
