AC not cooling as expected

I have GL500 2011 and I´m experiencing some problems with the AC, I feel the air coming from the driver side is hotter that then air from the copilot that is cooler (both sides are set to coldest position). I recently had to replace the battery, so I´m not sure it is something related to this, since I read in internet that may be is needed to reset the AC system, I tried to follow this guide https://itstillruns.com/reset-merced...m-7899592.html but it is not working.

any one of you have experiences something similar?

thanks,

I don't know anything about a reset, but you might just be due for a proper recharge. Take it to a local garage that has a machine - they will evacuate, then refill with the proper amount.

Have you already scanned that AC system of codes? Report back what if any codes you have.

When I had a similar issue there was a leak in the system and Freon was low. Take it to a shop, they can refill and scan for leaks. With age, o-rings can start leaking. In my case, there was a small crack in the condenser.
