I'm tracking down a potential leak in my 2010 Honda Civic (which is causing intermittent compressor clutch shutdown). I recently had a brand new compressor put in, and the only place I've found some dye with a UV light is where the new compressor attaches - but I've never looked for leaks before and I can't tell if this is a serious leak or not. Maybe it's just leftover dripping from installation?
I also noticed that when I untwisted the caps on the H and L valves, they hissed like opening a soda. This would lead me to believe that my valve cores (which are stock) are leaking?
The leak could also be in the evaporator core, and I'm considering renting a sniffer to test that.
