I got maxima 4 years ago and ac was not working I never paid attention since I only drive 10 miles and this summer I decided I wanted so I looked in and hi pressure hose was leaking I went to junk yard got one and fixed a problem but in 10 minutes low pressure started leaking so today I got low pressure hose and same thing in 10 minutes condenser started leaking I don’t really want to change condenser so is there any way I can fix it without changing it ? like is there some super gum I can stick on the hole to make it stop leaking ?

There's nothing that I'm aware of that you can add to the system to stop the leak. You could try having the leak welded, but I'm not sure how effective that would be, or how much it would cost.

problem fixed for $ 4.99 I got j-b cold weld from Wal-Mart its two different tubes and you mix them together I brushed damaged area on condenser cleaned from r134 residue and I used hobby and craft knife its very small razor from 99 cent store to apply j-b cold weld and after 24 hours as instructions said when this mixture dried I added R134 and its seems to hold very well I think I just saved my self at least $ 200 for condenser I would of changed my self but I am sure it would take me all weekend ) so if you heave same problem try this thing its just 5 bucks !
