Hi Guys,

Its been a long time, which is a good thing I guess because it means I haven't had any problems with my car
I have one now...

The spring that detaches the clutch from the AC is partly broken.
It's this part below. One of the 3 metal colored springs is broken in two. Because of this the clutch doesn't disengage well and makes a not so nice noise when the AC compressor turns itself off. AC works fine otherwise but I'm sure the clutch is wearing off way too fast now.

Should be an easy fix (except it uses pentalobe screws but I'll find me a screwdriver somewhere) but I can't seem to find the part. I found and ordered one for a Astra H in hopes it would fit but its a few millimeters too large.

Can you guys help me find the part please? I should be shipped to Belgium.
Can't seem find it second hand as they will allways sell the whole compressor not just one part.
Astra J - 1.7 CDTI 110HP

Thanks
Ok, strangely enough I did manage to find the right part on ebay now for a reasonable 35 GBP after shipping.

Now I need to find 5-lobe Torx bits and hope the old part comes off when it needs too
