2000 E320 Wagon
2000 E320 A/C problem

Hi all,
The A/C in my E320 Wagon is acting strangely. It blows cold out of the passenger vents, but not the driver's side. Obviuosly, this would indicate that the compressor is working and that the system is charged. However, there must be a vent that is not opening or something. Does anyone have any troubleshooting advice? Thanks!

Actually, it indicates the opposite -- you're low on refrigerant. A temperature difference in the two center vents (often accompanied by a hissing noise) is a common symptom of low refrigerant charge.
