A/C stopped cooling
Hi
The gas of the a/c holds me for several months and disappears ...
In addition, there is also noise of air escape similar to "PSSSS"
It is clear to me that there can be a leak ..
Is there a "known" problem with this issue?

I'm not aware of a "known issue" with the A/C leaking on 997.1s.
I think you or your shop need to find the leak with the "standard" techniques.
Your statements are a bit puzzling though, if you hear a leak so distinctly I cannot imagine how that freon is lasting you several months. I can believe that a slow leak can keep you charged for months but you would likely not be able to hear that slow of a leak.

I hear the noise after several months that gas has apparently leaked... :-/

Leaks could be anywhere, but the more common culprits are:
Evaporator,
Condensers,
Compressor
Ideally you have the system recharged and the tech sniff's the culprits (for the evap you sniff the vents and condensation drain) with an electronic leak detector.
