97-01 ES Owners - Can you confirm this?
The airflow seems less strong coming from the passenger vents than the drivers side vents (both floor and dash). Could you set your airflow to 3/5 or 4/5 bars and tell me if the airflow feels of equal strength on both drivers and passenger sides, from both the floor, dash and defog vents? I'm trying to figure out if the blower is on it's way out, or if all 97-01 ES's are like this. Thanks!

I am no professional mechanic, but I agree with Phil that it is strange that the passenger side (where the blower motor is located btw) would be less forceful than the drivers side. I'm wondering if there is something stuck/caught in the motor or vents (Yesterday I heard a whirling type sound for 2-3 seconds after I shut off the air). It is way too damn cold now, about 7 degrees, to go pulling parts so this will need to wait until the spring.

Refer to my prost of last year on a related issue. I too was puzzled, but all is well.
The noise that you heard however may be related to something else, so if it reccurs, you'll need to chase it down.
