Is This Normal?
Hi All, I know, I've been a stranger. I've been gone to India for some time and my car has been sitting in my car port forever with me coming back every so often just to start her and move her from time to time. Which leads to my question. When I let it idle, the driver's side A/C turns warm after about 10 minutes. It didn't do this before that I can remember. There is one other thing. About a year ago when I was able to drive her about 20 miles ONCE, a piece of plywood flew off a truck and landed just in front of my car. It hit the front lower grill and broke it. But didn't go through it (unbelievably). There was lots of plywood "splinters" pulled from the front area. But it didn't seem to damage the AC condenser. On the other hand, it blows cold for a while during idling. Then it just seems to warm up, like the A/C compressor is off. However, the passenger side is ice cold. Anybody have this issue or know what's up?

Driver side warm and pass side cold is either low refrigerant, or a bad blend door actuator. Also make sure the fans are working.

If you turn the car off and back on does the air blow cold again?
If so I would say the blend actuator is bad....my chevy truck will do this.....actuators are 60 bucks |

Blend door issue for sure. Back in the day they used to be vacuum actuated. I assume they are electronic now? So is the blend door actuator vacuum based or electric motor?
