For what i can find out looks like 7Oz total so i was going to add 1 Oz for the condenser quantity . Does that sound ok ?

Actually, you should replace exactly what you have lost. Don't know how much you lost? Drain the compressor, flush out the rest of the system and replace the receiver, receivers don't last that long in R-134a systems anyway. This way, you will be 100% sure, unless you can find a dipstick someplace. I never was able to find a dipstick.

How is you accessory drive shaft, does it get louder with the AC on or it is not yet making any noise, or maybe you have already replaced it. Is your vehicle new in Europe or is it a Japanese Domestic (JDM) import.
