did you replace it or have it done? what did it end up running you?had the opposite happened to me. i pu the heat on 75 and it's blowing cold. it turned out it was the hvac control. got a used one and it worked no problem.
any specific areas to check? i'm doubting this is going to be it as it was working one second and then the next it wasn't. i'll definitely check it though.Before you spend money to replace the water valve, make sure to check that your passenger side cabin filter boxes and ducts are properly connected. I had a similar problem and it turned out that cabin filter assembly wasn't put back together properly by the shop after I had some work done.
doesn't make sense if the system is low on freon that one side is cold and the other isn't.It turned out i had a small leak in the AC system and it was low on freon.
I tend to agree, although I do not know specifically how the BMW engineers set up the system.doesn't make sense if the system is low on freon that one side is cold and the other isn't.
tried adjusting temp, closing/opening vents, fan speeds, etc. - nothing made a difference.I tend to agree, although I do not know specifically how the BMW engineers set up the system.
Is it possible the controller is not "seeing" the temp for the passenger side temp setting? Try going full hot and then full cold, any difference? Try closing off driver's side and/or middle vents? How about Max AC setting, any difference?

I thought the same thing. My X5 had the same symptoms, took a chance and charged system with R134 and voila, problem solved. :cheers:doesn't make sense if the system is low on freon that one side is cold and the other isn't.
Where is the low pressure port? Certainly would be easy (and cheap!) enough to add a can of R134 to see if it makes a difference.:thumbsup:I thought the same thing. My X5 had the same symptoms, took a chance and charged system with R134 and voila, problem solved. :cheers:
The low pressure (suction) hose is on the driver side.Where is the low pressure port? Certainly would be easy (and cheap!) enough to add a can of R134 to see if it makes a difference.:thumbsup:
