aircon leak?

[v2brett]

so today i took the car for the a/c looking at and was fearing the worst (compressor failure) but when the guy hooked up the machine there was only 45g out of the 525g that should be there.  so now my a/c is back to being quiet and icy cool again.

But could the compressor still be the fault?  and is there any common areas to check where leaks occur?  (leak dye has also been put in)

Check the aircon rad at the front.  Mine is in at Awesome later this month to get this changed.  When they shone the UV light on it there were no big leaks, just lots of stone damage and it almost looked like some of the radiator was porous!!  More of an ooze than a leak!!
