> yesssss , despite popular belief it isnt uncommonm for newer r134a systems top leak down and need a top off . buttt we dop a whole service pull it down into vacuum and inject proper weights and see what the pressures are . we also send a die into the mix just in case ya lose the charge in a week or 2 we can see what is up

I think Ill throw a can in it since its only around $10 and if that doesnt work Ill let you know and Ill go from there. Its cool, just not cold.

I put a can in my old Neon and it worked fine for the one summer I owned the car.
