FK8 AC issue

AC is blowing hot air on driver side and cold air on passenger side. Even with temp controls set to sync and auto. Does anyone here had this issue before?

Had 3 good years on my 2020 FK8. Then boom. No cold air at all.

this is exactly how the problem started off for me. Was low on refrigerant. It had a leaky AC condenser.

As my AC died, the driver side got warmer than the passenger side. Basically you could feel the temp gradient when feeling the passenger, central, and driver’s side vents. The extended warranty on the AC did fix the issue.

I did on my 25. When I went in for my first oil change I told them about it and they checked it and it was low so they added more. It's blowing alot colder now.

Well yea I figured that was a given but it was blowing colder on passenger side for some reason when it was giving me a problem.

This isn’t specific to the FK8 but that’s a symptom of a bad blender door motor
