Sometimes you will need to punch the circlip eyes with a suitable pointed end punch or chisel, before getting a good pair of internal circlip pliers on it...
The circlip can get stuck and requires a 'shock' before it will move.
Once you've got it moving, use some WD40 or similar on it, and a small flatblade screwdriver can help to get the clip out of the lip in the compressor cover
