Don't just look at the compressor, have it professionally leak checked with a dye injected into the system, there are a ton of places it could be leaking, all of which are expensive to repair. Mine still leaks but being in south central PA, it isn't that critical to me, being near St. Pete makes a helluva difference!!

I'm also considering having the hoses rebuilt depending on cost. An ac charge lasts only 4 months at this point and the compressor is attracting lots of oil/dirt. I'll do some leak detection too to be sure. _______________________________________________ a2-16v-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.a2-16v.com/mailman/listinfo/a2-16v-list
