We need a little more information. Did you diagnose the leak? Are you making the repairs?

If you really have a refrigerant leak, you will most likely not be able to repair it yourself. I had that problem in my SubZero. The tech came out and put a new evaporator unit in the refrigerator part, then evacuated and recharged the system. All that required some specialized tools and knowledge.

So, what, exactly, are your symptoms?
