Default A/c issues

couldn't bring up anything but one thread about blending when I searched.

So here's the deal.

My a/c has always been junk in my 04. Works fine after a long time on the freeway.

This winter my truck started dripping a watery oil substance from around the a/c comp. I figured it was condensation + oil from a failed oil filter I just removed.

I'm thinking it's a seal on the compressor but it could be a line spraying down and the pully flinging it around... I'll clean it and find out. It's not motor oil.... evaps too quick.

Has anyone come up w/ upgraded a/c parts? Is there a hot rodded unit that can be bought then send your core back?

Any other tips tricks or suggestions before I tear this thing apart and rebuild it all.

Sounds like you should had took it back to the dealer to had it checked out. Sounds like it has leaked all the lub out .Might still be able to recharge it with lub and some Freon. I have never had any trouble with DODGE air.==Goodluck
