2006 WRX A/C loosing refrigerant

Hey guys, I have a 2006 WRX wagon with around 240k miles on her. For the last several years I have been adding R134 to the system to get me through the summers. Now it doesn’t last 2 weeks. I used a sniffer to check all the orings under the hood and all checked good. I put the sniffer in the vents and it gives a slight signal of leakage. So… I replaced the condenser and it still does the same thing. After playing with the controls I found that the leak is worse when the A/C is selected off (fan still blowing full). With the A/C switched back on, it barely detects.
Any ideas out there that might help me figure this one out?? It’s getting pretty damn hot here in the Midwest and really don’t want to drive my pickup.
