If you don't have a set of gauges, either find one, or bring it to a service shop.

Everything in the diagnostics here starts with manifold gauges.

If she heard the pssssssss, that might be from the inside and hard to find. Some shops have some sort of a freon sniffer to tell if the leak is from inside.

OMG! Same problem here! Mine was wearing against the SAI pipe. I saw the freon coming out from under my hood, and i'm like "CRAP there goes the engine!", thank goodness it was just an a/c pipe
