Radiator and potential air con condenser leak r33gtst

[benl1981]

I’ve had the radiator in and out of the car a couple of times recently and I’ve just noticed on the air con condenser panel a small wetness. I’m not sure if this is a leak and would be the compressor oil?  I had to angle the radiator to get it out. I can’t see any visible makes where I’ve hit the condenser panel but  I guess it’s possible

 Is it common for the condensers to leak a little for a while and has anyone damaged their panel when getting the radiator out? 

I’ve only just got the car so I don’t know if the wetness was already on the panel..

The compressor still seems to kick in etc. 

Anyone had any experience with condenser leaks? Will the compressor switch off when low on gas? Are there any risks to just leaving it?

Clean the wet spot off with degreaser, run the AC for a little while and go back and have a look.

maybe a microcrack on it, so yes, better go clean it and see. Even If there's a cleft it's not a problem to weld it

Agree with every post above.
