Where_do_you_add_freon_on_a_2000_buick_regal
It contains no Freon. It contains R134a refrigerant and you add it to the low pressure port which is the larger pipe.
The 2000 Chevrolet Silverado truck has two ports on top of the air conditioner compressor. You will add Freon through the low pressure port.
On the suction side, the low side...................
There is one valve that is used to add refrigrant. But you had better not add Freon. Freon is R12 and your vehicle's A/C system does not have Freon (R12) as a refrigrant. More than likely it uses R134a.
It is either on or near the recievr dryer in the right rear of the engine compartment. To corrrectly add freon, you need gauges and a refrigerant recovery system
Its best to use a set of a/c gauges but if you are not then just add the freon to the low side which will be the larger hose (suction side)...

This is what I did for my Chevy prism 2000, it works fine: http://www.id-usa.com/how_to_recharging.asp
You don't. The 2000 Saturn refrigerant is not Freon R12 it contains R134a. Add it at the Low pressure port. You have a leak or it would not be necessary to add refrigerant. It is illegal to add refrigerant to a system with a leak without first repairing the leak. Take it to a professional and have the leak fixed.
If that is all that you want to do then just add it on the low side service port that is located on the a/c accumulator...................
I belive the low port is located in behind of the front grill. I have a 99 GV. 2.5
