Oil???

I had no idea there was any oil in the system??The fan turns as always under that is the compressor about the size of the bottom half of a bottle of fizzy wine

Should i oil the bearings??Often bearings are damaged by oil in not so old units??

Im not by the fridge just now but from what i remember it seemed to be a sealed unit with the recharge pipe comeing up and a couple of pipes to a radiator all sealed?

Dont remember any other filler caps??

I bought it second hand i think its about 5 years old?I was told less but.I think fridge gas just "escapes" in time not due to a leak just due to normal tolerances ???
