BMW X5 A/C driver side blowing cold air and passenger side blowing hot air

Fix it by servicing the A/C freon level

[@joeboehle6700]

I followed your advice and IT WORKED!! Cold air now coming out both sides. It costs $59 now where I live but waaaay cheaper than having AC service done at BMW shop. Thank you for the simple instructions.

[@Ghost-vr5ho]

Bro big thank you this has worked on my Mercedes A class.

[@postaboy2001]

THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THIS!! I've been hesitant on getting a freon recharge because another mechanic said it's not that. I hate when mechanics try to get people for extra shit that's not necessary

[@TM-CAL]

It’s been 10 months now and the AC still works fine 👍. Good luck to you

[@punisherelcastigador3667]

In my case still the same, I fill it up but the problem still haft cold haft heat 🤣

I had the same problem with my car, and thanks to this video I corrected the problem👍👍👍👍👍👍thank you

[@iarriaga45]

i have same issue but. right now is a winter time. i don't think is something about a/c. any suggestion?? i need heat on both sides

[@rammuralitharan863]

Hi, great video. How did you manage to refill it when it was cold outside - did you wait until it got warmer outside ? I believe you cant use the AC Pro when its below 65F?

[@TM-CAL]

Hello I live in los Angeles and the weather is more on the warmer side. The 60F you see in the video is the lowest setting for the inside of the car to test the AC if it was working..... I believe it was around 75 outside.. And for servicing the AC, i think it’s better to do it when it’s hot, so that you can see if the problem is resolved and keep an eye after... wo that if it happens again you know you have a leak. Otherwise you might serviced and fix the problem, and by the time it gets hot and you try to use it... you’ll think that it’s not a problem of freon.... hope you get my point 😅

[@nitolin]

My problem is to get heat in my bmw ! Is winter and set the knows to 84 and still blowing cold air . Any help out there?

[@tvalue4618]

Try the heater control valve replacement first, fixed mines. The valve was only $40 on eBay and this guy who works on only bmws put it in for $60 because it’s a very quick and simple job

[@obsidiansuby]

Nice work, big help, got the same issue, cheers.

[@daramolad]

I have the same issue. So the solution is to service the AC?

[@zlord1199]

It was your heater control valve that you replaced. You just needed to give it time to kick in. This is a common issue

[@aztecafily1524]

Greetings, I had the same problem with my E70 X5M I almost thought it was a problem related with the valve door that lets cold and hot air go into the cabin, I almost started to dissemble the dashboard until I watched your video. I check my low pressure gauge and was under 30psi I added more refrigerant and just like most of everyone in here, started to blow cold air on passenger side. Only spend $64 thanks you so much for your video you saved me a lot. Do you remember what psi of pressure you left it at? I went up to 41psi on a 90 degrees day.

[@TM-CAL]

Great, I’m glad it helped. I remember it was between the 40 and 50 mark … closer to the 43. FYI it’s been 2 years since I uploaded the video and the AC still working without any problems

[@Trump-The-GREATEST]

Yeah the AC pressure should be at 40 psi for it to run smoothly and blow ice cold. I have the same problem although my advanced scanner shows the Water Valve solenoid short-circuit, i notice right away that my AC was not blowing super cold like it was & the first thing that came to mind was " my AC is low, need to refill to full again." Gonna get this fix soon. Thanks for the fix! P.S. Autofools .... *cough * cough * meant Autozone employees mostly don't know szhiet especially when it comes to BMWs!

[@nealart]

Thanks I’ll give it a try!

[@Kwtints]

Would help to know if a leak caused It mine was hot all around had it charged worked for a week now I believe I have a leak

[@tvalue4618]

Mines is blowing cold air on passenger side, cool on drivers side front vent only because it blows hot air on the feet vents and dash vents? Does anyone know if this can will fix my issue?

[@rmasco71]

I think I’m having an issue with blend air actuator

[@DC-pk3yb]

did you replace ? Think I'm having the same issue.

[@DC-pk3yb]

what was the blend door actuator part #?

[@TM-CAL]

I don’t remember that sorry. It was a long time ago

[@vnyeu]

What gas in the car

[@viselchakforyou]

I have the same problem with my X4 except it is reversed (cold air pass side, no cold air on driver side). Also, I noticed some humming comming from the vents that I did not hear before. Could it be the heater control valve?

[@TM-CAL]

Not sure but I will still make sure the A/C is serviced with freon before changing parts Good luck

[@dillonmatt3840]

My 2014 435i blows hot air on passenger side and cold in the middle and driver side

[@singhkingh3765]

I have some problems driving side cold air coming other side hot 🔥 air any one tell me what I do car bmw 330e 2018

[@dennischastang7769]

I am having the opposite problem. My driver side will blow heat and AC but my passenger side will only blow AC no heat

Have the same problem with my BMW X5. So servicing the AC is the solution

[@TM-CAL]

Dipo Daramola that was a fix for me.. I guess it’s the cheapest way to start with

[@daramolad]

@@TM-CAL How?

[@daramolad]

@@TM-CAL What's the function of the tube? It is a refill?

[@daramolad]

@@TM-CAL My own BMW X3 driver AC side is blowing cold while the passenger side of the AC is not. After I top it up today with gas, the passenger side started blowing cold again but after some hours it stopped blowing cold. Only the Drivers side works fine.

[@TM-CAL]

Dipo Daramola look it up on KZbin.. how tu service Car AC.... the tube is to refill the system with freon... but if u put too much the system won’t function.. look it up online before u do it
