Investigated AC leak.
This means the compressor is bad right? |

Yeah. That's a bummer.

How many miles, and do you run the AC regularly?

I've only put a couple hundred miles (if that) on my motor since I got it running so... It's not like I had a lot of opportunity. Once I got refrigerant in it, I started using it right away, and consistently. Weird thing is, I ran vacuum on it with no leak. Twice. Still leaked out

Had a leaking front strut (OEM so almost 7 years old and 50k+ miles), so went ahead and put Bilstein B8s all around. Should've just done it when I put the TRD springs on a few months ago, but who doesn't love doing things twice (Three times if I count replacing the upper mounts a while back)?

Gave it a wash and wax and took it for a casual drive. It’s amazing how many looks you get with a freshly waxed car.
