loud clicking noise in the right front engine compartment

turned out that the bolt that secure the compressor clutch was missing so the clutch was flapping and hitting the frame next to the AC pulley...good thing there was not enough room/clearance for it to fall out completely...

so i took the belt off and unbolted the compressor with lines still attached...found some random bolt I have and bolted the clutch back on with the shims...checked clutch clearance (very important)...bolted everything back on...ghetto but the AC clutch still works normally...able to engage and disengage by turning AC on and off and the noise is gone


now if only I can fix my ABS sensors this easily...so I dont have to live with ABS lights on my dash
