Does it have an oily feel to it? If so, then it's probably the lubricating oil for the compressor. If the oil is able to escape the system, then the refrigerant most certainly is, as well, and you're going to end up bleeding it all out.
PAG oil goes in the air conditioner compressor. It is added in the same place as the refrigerant. However, this oil must be added before the lines for adding the refrigerant are put in place.
Turning an air conditioner on its side can cause the compressor oil to flow into the refrigerant lines, potentially damaging the unit and affecting its performance. It is recommended to keep the air conditioner upright to prevent any issues.

The air conditioner has failed in some way. Either the compressor has failed or the pressurized refrigerant has leaked out. DO NOT operate the air conditioning until the problem has been fixed, the refrigerant contains oil to lubricate the compressor, which, if the refrigerant has escaped, will be damaged without lubrication. Don't turn a cheap fix (refrigerant recharge) into a very expensive one (replace compressor).
Freon is colorless on its own. The refrigerant oil can have a tan color, while a leak detection dye would be yellow.
The pressure will rise and the oil can thin.The purpose of the out door section of a residential a/c system is to condense gas into a liquid my means of cooling the gas.
Freon is odorless, but it is possible to smell the refrigerant oil that could also be leaking.
No. You may be leaking engine coolant from the heater core or leaking refrigerant oil from the AC evaporator.
Warmer air is capable of "absorbing" more water. When an air conditioner cools the air, some of that water condenses out, not only drying the air, but also leaving quite a bit of water on the coils of the air conditioner. Air conditioners not only cool the air, they also remove a lot of the humidity that makes the air feel "muggy". The simple fact is, ALL vehicles can drip water when the air conditioner is on, depending on the relative humidity of your region on a specific day. If your vehicle is only leaking water, it's just condensate, and the air conditioner is designed to properly deal with the condition. Check the liquid that's leaking... if it's not colored (anti freeze color) and it's not oil... then it's condensate, a natural condition for a normally functioning air conditioner.
