I had moisture in my system only after changing the compressor which I knew was bad because it was screaming. This was on my Scion. Anytime you service an A/C system involving the disconnecting of things, a vacuum needs to be placed on it to remove any possible moisture. Likewise, when you charge the system, all the charge lines need to be purged of air, otherwise you're slowly introducing moisture. A system with a dryer it will take longer to notice the problem. Smaller R-134 system, you'll notice it a lot sooner.

about 28 mmHg of vacuum for close to 30 minutes will do the trick. You can use less, just takes longer to get it out.

BTW, for most people not in the know, google is your best friend for learning the basics of how A/C works. Or find a certified and knowledgeable family member

I work in commercial refrigeration and chillers/boilers.
