1999 Cav leaking antifreeze from a/c compressor?
My car has a slow leak of antifreeze, and its beading on the a/c compressor before dripping off. But I'm not sure if its the compressor leaking or its just collecting there. I can't see any leaks in any hoses or the radiator. My questions:
Do a/c compressors even have antifreeze flowing through them? If so, is my compressor shot or a leaky gasket?
Any idea what else could be leaking? (Probably hard to say without seeing it, but maybe you'll have an idea of common slow leaks)
Thanks for the help.

The A/C compressor will not have antifreeze in it or any of the A/C lines.
You may even have a water pump leaking , when this happens and the engine is running it will spray coolant all over.

I have a 2.2L V4. Like I said, its a very slow leak, and after a week or so, it seems to be slowing down. I checked it this morning after letting it sit all night and there was only a couple drops on the driveway. It looks like there is a little bit of fluid missing from the overfill, but not much.
