AC only cold on the driver side

Hi, Please Help

I have a W203 2007 C200 Right-hand-Drive with about 173 000Kms on the clock.

My AC was not very effective so I regassed it and replaced the cabin Filter. This made a HUGE diffrance but only to the driver side... all vents are blowing like they should, only the vents on the driver side is cold. Ive made sure that the setting on the control panel is set to cold for both the driver and passenger side. any Ideas?

Pretty sure your blendor is not open. But I’m not sure if there are separate blendors for driver and passenger side. That’s a start though.

Sounds like something is wrong with the linkages. These are known for breaking, as with numerous other plastic bits throughout the car. While you have everything open, you might as well check the stepper motors.

The good news is the fix is easy once the dash is opened up. The bad news is that opening up the dash is a LOT of work.

See this thread.

Good luck.

I had this issue for a few months as well. Turns out my refrigerant was almost gone. I got it topped off and I've been good to go ever since.
