don't clutches work on adhesion? and isn't WD 40 a LUBRICANT ? in my 20 plus years of ac experience probably not a good idea.. would you think of spraying a manual trans clutch disk with WD 40? you guys should leave the ac stuff to the experts instead of adding "lube" or unmeasured refrigerant oil into the system . too much and you'll fill the evap coil and that it!

Technically its a water displacement not a lubricant

Internal compressor noise. When it completely goes, you'll most likely have to flush the metal shavings out of the system.

So changing it now would stop me from having to get it flushed later or damned if I do/don't sort of deal.

Probably. You should check the screen in the orfice tube for metal. If you don't see any then no flush is required.
