1. Measure the circumference around the entire circumference between the pressure plate and A/C compressor pulley using a thickness gauge.




2. Verify that the clearance is within the specification.
- If not within the specification, remove the pressure plate and adjust the clearance by changing the shim (0.2 mm (0.008 in), 0.5 mm (0.02 in)) or the number of shims.
