thanks for the input folks.

now that i have the car back with AC. i'll tell you what they did.

supposedly it was running next to bone dry as far as freon goes, and supposedly 6 o-rings went on it. so they had to replace those as well.

think it was about $240 for the o-rings and the freon rejuice. plus the cost of having the system checked which ended up $75.

not too happy about having to spend the money, but after 60,000 miles and i am just now spending money on it, i am not too upset.

thanx again.
