[quote=Anonymous]My Jeep has a leaking compressor. Takes a large can in the spring and sometimes part of a small can in the late summer. $40/year in freon is much cheaper than $1200 for a whole new system. (Because if you open the system to change the compressor you'll also have to replace the dryer, which is almost everything.) Leaks vary in size. If you're losing a charge in three days, then replace the compressor. If you're losing a charge in three months, then just charge it once or twice a season and don't worry about it in the winter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHg2xRMnM38 That video is a quick walk-through. A recharge kit is slightly more expensive the first time, but you can unscrew the trigger-charger-gauge piece and just buy a can the second time. If you're lucky, you'll find a "used" one in the trash outside AutoZone / O'Reilly / etc and won't even need to buy that part, just the can. [/quote]
