Thanks. Been very satisfy with fiesta. Truly a great city car! If only the rear brake is using disc it will be even better. =)

I have done googling, some says even the a/c is not on, the a/c compressor pulley will still spinning. For my fiesta, i notice the a/c pulley completely stop when a/c is off, and the drive belt just grind through the pulley. Wondering if it would cause the drive belt to snap due friction heat ?

should still spin. when AC stop the pulley clutch would disengage from the compressor, but the pulley should still be spinning.

you might wanna get it checked ASAP, in case like u said the burns up the belt.

Exactly. Initially i thought the occasion burning smell is due to the new drive belt smell which i have just replaced two months ago. I would send it to aircon specialist for inspection tomorrow. Hopefully it would not break big hole.
