Why would it blow colder on the passenger side? Having it checked at any autozone/pepboys/oreilly's is ok?

The evaporator is closer to the passenger side which is why that side blows colder. I had the same exact problem 2 summers back and it was because the system was low on refrigerant.

For what it's worth, I have to do a recharge at the beginning of every summer. I just use a can that has a built in gauge from a generic car parts store. My system is definitely leaking. However, the recharge always lasts the summer and lets the a/c work great.
Yes, I should get it fixed professionally. |

Our AC systems need total of 1.3 Lbs.....if you have more or less it will cause this symptom as well.
so get it checked fully...... PS: Mine had over 2 Lbs, and was not getting cold at all. |
