    Best to let a shop look at it. I replaced my entire AC system in my Intergra years ago and ended up having a tiny leak that was causing all sorts of issues. They did a dye test and that was the only way to find the issue. After that it ran great! Sometimes the pro's are the best bet.

    I was surprised at the dust and dirt that came out of mine when I bought it.

    Its Friday...chill out.

    Yes I also agree that its more than just topping off with a leak sealer that can potentially makes matters worst. Proper ac gauges, know how of ac components, proper oil and oil filling capacity for each component. Also recommend nylog for the o-rings, RECOMMEND not REQUIRED.
