If you can get access to an electronic detector, "sniff" around all the joints, the condenser, the inside vents (evaporator). You could also try some soapy water on the joints, see if it bubbles up. Sometimes you can see oil around a leaky fitting. Dye can also be used with a UV light to locate leaks.
The condenser fittings, as well as the condenser itself, would be prime suspects since you say the trouble started when that part was replaced.
I once had a similar experience after changing the condenser on a "Brand X" car. It turned out I had forgotten to put an o-ring on one of the fittings. D'oh!
