FYI most refrigerants already have oil that is proportionate to the amount of refrigerant in the can. If you are using straight refrigerant and all you need is to add oil to your system, then there is product out there that is straight oil that can be added to the low side port in your ac system. IDQ , QUEST , and AC PRO are some companies out there that have many of these products. You can also find them in the web at www.idqusa.com along with helpfull information about your vehicles ac system.

You added freon to your 2001 Sebring LXi and now it makes this humming noise The air works but you dont know what that noise is?
Did you add an oil charge to the system when you recharged it and did you recharge the system using refrigeration gauges. The system may be low on refrigerant oil or you could have overcharged the system causing the compressor to have to work too hard.
