NEED HELP! Broken AC...
Ok so I was driving today and it was really hot out (96 Degrees) and my AC stopped working.
I smelled something that smelled like Latex paint.
Well I got a refill kit with gauge and filled her up to the proper PSI... it did not get cold.
I checked it 10 Minutes later and it was empty.
I filled it again and waited... then I turned on the AC and guess what.. all of the refrigerant came out of the vents in a big puff.. I could hear the hissing from the leak.
So... is it the evaporator core? a blown O-Ring? What?
I need help it's hot as hell here.

Sounds like something on the low pressure side. I wouldn't think it's your evaporator or the lines going to it, since it would be pretty hard for those components to fail. I'd say most likely its a plastic or rubber seal.
Regardless though, that's going to be a pretty tough fix. I guess your warranty is out on the car?
