I argued my way to a free recharge and blac test, though my condensor will eventually need to be replaced.
It's leaking so slowly I'll probably just go the DIY recharge kit way too.

I just got done replacing my condenser w/ my wifes help so the bumper didn't drop on the ground and I got it done in under 45min. or so. The condenser has just two top bolts, 2 line bolts ( 1 for the "high" and 1 for the "low pressure") and 1 bolt for a sensor that bolts to the condensers right center side. You'll have to transfer two rubber grommets on the bottom of the old Condenser to the new one, along with the two top mounting brackets. It was very easy. Do it yourself. Be sure when you disconnect the high/low pressure lines on the left side of the condenser that you still have these little black round rubber o-rings on the fittings and that they don't get any dirt on them. I put little pieces of tape over the fitting openings to keep any dirt out plus keep the o-rings in place so I do not loose them while transferring the parts from the old condenser to the new one. Also, take you time putting in the new one. The hood latch can easily catch the fins on the condenser while you are lowering it into position and that will ruin your day for sure! Good luck.
