A/C can't hold freon
Hi I'm a proud owner of a 2002 3.4 Chevy Impala, love my car but since last summer I been having problems with the A/C. I filled up the freon and it would only give me cold air for like a week. I put on a vacuum on it to check for leaks and its holding on the pressure so it doesn't seem to be a leak.
Some one told me they had a similar problem and it was a bad O ring when under vacuum it held fine but once it had pressure the other way it would leak. Some one else told me to check if the system had a filter that cost about 8 bucks. Does any one else have or had the same problem and if you did what was the solution?
