I looked at rockauto and it looks like the wrong pulley was put on it.


The smooth area should be nearest the compressor but on mine it's nearest the outer edge. Unfortunately there's only about a $75 difference between replacing the whole unit and just replacing the pulley.

I'm happy with the price. -- "While you can teach an old dog new tricks, you simply can't teach him to be a cat."
