Just did this same job code 80436E
james92se thank you for putting this together, saved me some time and probably at least $2000. I did a write up on how I tackled this job on a 2016 f15, will post that below.
My f15 is around 80k, and I just did he valve cover replacement because it was leaking. A few days later, noticed it was unseasonably hot inside the car and realized the ac was pumping outside air. Bimmerlink showed the 80436e code.
Followed these instructions, took about 2 weeks between trial and error of tools and parts. The job was done tonight. Hey james92se, how much longer did your compress last after changing out the clutch?
and to answer your question james92se, the factory clutch will engage and disengage. the after market one for me is engaged at all times, it's always spinning if the hvac is on now. it's ok since I keep the car between 68 to 70 all year round and the air conditioning helps dehumidify.
