OK, I admit it, I knew this day would come.

Car: 1998 E300 DT

My A/C has needed an occaisional can of R134a to keep it cool, but now I know the small leak has turned catastrophic. Today I had zero PSI of refrigerant in it after recharging it last week, and it was literally fine yesterday so in one day it went from fine to zero.

I've heard something about a bad hose...is it the one from the condensor to the receiver drier I should look at first? I figured tomorrow I would take a look and see if there's an obvious trail of oil anywhere but thought I would ask what's the most common area these W210s develop leaks? Condensor? Compressor? Evaporator (I Hope Not!)?
