A/C Questions I went to use my A/C yesterday jsut to see if it was still charged. Low and behold it was empty 
I bought the car in 7/2005, A/C has always worked fine. I hardly ever use the A/C. Prolly since I have owned my Trans Am I have used the A/C ~25 times..
So what would make my A/C system have a leak? The car is not my DD, only has 49K miles on it.. Any ideas? Kinda pisses me off to know that my A/C is gone when I take excellent care of my car.. I really hope I don't have a leak..
Thanks

Theres no freon?
Check the lines and replace if you see some oil sipping from them.
even though you have 49K is still a 8 year car and hoses crack when theirs barely any use. Just like tires....they get old and crack.
I would check the lines, replace if leaks and is good to replace the valve(filter) before adding freon again.
And hope is not the compressor.
good luck
