SC CLUTCH KIT?

Searched the forum, i think my SC bearing is going bad.

it is good time to get a new SC clutch kit, i just found the part# of the SC Clutch Kit (new version)1130900044. i heard the old version is better...really??

anyone can suggest me where is the best place to get this parts online? i found $1,056 on primepartssuperstore.com which is more expensive than i saw someone here got it at $5XX-$7XX.

Any suggestion?

They are just expensive man, keep searching. What makes you think yours is going bad? Out of curiosity I asked my dealer and just the part was $1350...

The newer version has smoother engagement... Whoopty freaking doo. I would say if it hasn't grenaded and spit ball bearings everywhere than you're fine. I've had the "chirp" since I've owned the car and I actually enjoy the brutal engagement of the kompressor.

Ditto, my 03 chirped the whole time I owned it as well. I will say the newer version is much more smooth.

thanks for reply~i like the brutal engagement like manual as well, but i found the "chirp" sound since last week i tried to reach 230km on highway, i think something is cracked. i had never heard that chirp since i've owned this car, so think it is not right to me, and i have to fix it.

i have been the dealer in here for checking. dealer is a crazy, they told me it is something wrong with the SC clutch, and they do not provide sc clutch kit fixing for customer in here. they can only change the whole supercharger for me. they quoted $15,000 for a new supercharger. it is kind of rip off. the dealer also suggested me to out to fix it. Right now, i have to find a garage outside to fix this problem.

Anyways, i got 2 # for the sc clutch kit-1130980040, and 1130900044. do you know what is the different between them??
