"2001" AE Air conditioner compressor leak

I was wondering if any other Maxima owners had their AC compressor leak?
Mine has some green fluid (looks like anti-freeze) leaking from the bottom. Both ends have just a few small drops. It dosen't leak much at all. Inspection mechanic said the fluid is the freon w/ possible dye in it.
Thanks in advance for any and all input,
Dan

Never had a leak in mine... I do believe they use refrigerant with dye in it though.
I'd have the leak fixed ASAP, so you're not left in the hot this spring/summer


And on another note, I notice you're from Hanover PA! That's like 7 miles up the road from me...
