Default Air con problem on isf

Hi all,

The air is not cold on the driver side while the passenger side is normal. The temp is same for both side. Any idea on what might be the problem? It was fine before

The discrepancy is very big when the car just started, and then the driver side gets colder, but still not as cold as the passenger side.

Fine before what? It sounds like a very unusual failure.

Do you run it in dual zone mode all the time? Try to take it off dual and see what happens...

Your system is more than likely undercharged. Have someone recover your system and see how much refrigerant is in it. You probably have a small leak at the condenser. I see it all the time. The only other cause would be a blend door actuator that has failed on the driver's side. Not too common.
