I stopped at the dealer and asked them to bleed the ABS/Trac system. I thought my caliper swap back home may have sucked air into the system. So $100 later they told me the line from the trac pump to accumulator is leaking. The line is $170 plus tax. Dealer wanted $600 to fix. I'll order the part.

From there I went to an AC service joint. I'm still R12. They wanted $500 to convert to 134 (assuming no leaks). Did a nitrogen pressure test and sure enough a leak somewhere down around the passenger side shock tower under the ABS module. Couldn't see it specifically because of all the hardware located there.

Paid $20 for the pressure test and rolled down the window.

Oh and also bought a new rad for another cool $320.

I'm having my doubts about this particular example. I think I may have picked the wrong SC.
