1: Is this something that can be done with one of those A/C recharge kits from an auto parts store? I have heard that some cars require the dealer to use special tools to do this.

2: Aside from the refrigerant, what else needs to be done? I have not removed the compressor, but should I be replacing/refilling any oil in the system?


Thanks for any help you guys provide!
O'reilly's, NAPA, AutoZone...etc one of those places used to do it for like $20+price of A/C gas. I forgot which and idk if it was only in selected places. Give local ones a call.
