Hi everyone. I'm hoping someone out there can help me with this one.
I have a 350CLS 2005 model that has re-developed a noisy sort of whining/bearing sort of noise. The last time I heard this same noise I was able to rectify it by tracing it to and replacing a guide pulley that the serpentine belt goes round.
This time I've traced the noise to the air conditioning compressor, it seems to be the pulley rather than something internal to the compressor itself. The noise stays the same whether the air conditioning is on or off, blowing hot or cold. Also, the air con operates with no problems.
My question is, does anyone know if the pulley on the compressor can be replaced on it's own or will the whole compressor need replacing?
The pulley has the manufacturer 'Denso' stamped on it but I can't see any other information on there. It has a central bolt with three holes surrounding it, can't see anything of note behind these holes.
Also, if the pulley can be replaced on it's own, is it simply a case of removing the central bolt or is it a more complex operation?
I've found a guy on eBay selling what appears to be the part I need, he's called atp-spareparts. He's in Germany and the title of the listing is 'Belt Pulley Compressor A/C Mercedes CLS C219 04-10 E-Class W211 S211 C207 A207'
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.
