Belt Noise, screaching on high RPM - not continuous
Hi Everyone, i have a new issue, my belt seems to slip, only when the AC is onn, i revv the car, if i gradually revv, no belt screaching, but if i immediately push the throttle the belt makes the screaching sound. If I drive hard, and change gears on high RPM with AC onn, it does the same, i will try to share a video as well for better understanding. Now i went to many mechanics, what they said at first go was to change the belt tensioner and belt. I immediately got that done but the issue did not fix. I went to many others, and they said after tensioners, they tested the pulleys, all seemed fine. But now i went to an authroized dealer, he said this is happening due to AC compressor. The pully of the AC compressor gets stuck when i immediately throttle. They said, the ac compressor needs to be changed, along with the condenser, along with cleaning the pipes as it is necessary to change the condenser along with the AC compressor. All together this formulates to be a big bill!! The AC works perfect, the problem happens only when i hit the throttle immediately and the gear shift, if sqeeqs and shifts, but what happens is that the belt slips, and its risky on high RPMs. to keep having this squeeqs. it can wear and tear the belt quick.
Any suggestion is appreciated. I am currently not convinced it is the AC compressor, and secondly why condenser needs to be changed along with it. The cooling is perfect.
Any help?? i will try to attach a video soon as well.
