My car periodically started giving me a popup and error, that has turned into a perma-error.
I had Tesla teleport a repairman into the wires of my car and he came back out and told me "low pressure sensor".
I pulled the frunk bin out and see the A/C compressor sitting there with oily stains around some of the plumbing port/s. So, yep, looks like she's leaking. Could be a half-turn of tightening, or a new gasket.. I'm hoping it's that simple.
My mechanic would like to know what kind of refrigerant this machine takes? No guesses, exact spec if you know - thanks in advance!
(I'm off warranty and 3 hours away from a service center and my mechanic is an expert with A/C repair and has all the proper equipment for diagnosing leaks, purging, and replacing refrigerant... just want to be sure of type).
It's a 2014 model S mid-year build with a VIN range P509xx
