I think bacteria can build up in the A/C system. The dealer can "flush" the system and the re-fill, i assume this will not cost much ? [/QUOTE]

gents,

a. gas doesn't leak out. its a pressurized system. if it leaks you have bigger problems

b. re-flushing the system doesn't change anything

its moisture condensation somewhere past the condenser that has gotten moldy. the dealer has to find where it is. hopefully just a filter. otherwise it will be hard to find. climate and usage changes the variables of where the problem lies
