Confirm an AC issue: compressor clutch
I recently took ownership of a '91 C4 3 days ago. Still learning what I need to know about this car but its been fun. Today I ran into an issue as I was pulling into work.
I noticed that there was water leaking from under the dash and my research points to AC drain being clogged up which I can hopefully take care over the weekend. I also noticed while idling with the AC on, the RPM jump slightly from 900-1000 with some clicking coming from the rear. I noticed that the AC compressor clutch was clicking on and off. I researched a bit and found out that this is a normal finding however Im hoping you guys can confirm that the frequency the clutch is stopping and starting is normal. Would a clogged AC drain play a role at all?
