My 04' base air conditioner is broken, blowing air but not cool. Most likely need to replace both the compressor and the condenser.
Here are some of the observations:
1) oil patch found on the lower right side of condenser (not dripping, most likely a slow leak from a hairline fracture)
2) service ports measure high side = 50psi (very low), low side = 30psi (normal)
3) compressor's magnetic clutch engaging and spinning

If you have done similar repair before, how much would be a reasonable budget?

Had similar problem a year and a half ago. $1900 at an interdependent shop.
