Mike, I have a Subaru Tribeca B9. THe passenger side blows cold air and drivers is hot.

Dealership said there is a 15 degree variance between the two. It is very cold! They burped the system said that should help. Didn't. I replace passenger side actuator door and motor. No help.

I've changed the heater core and it still blows cold on passenger side and hot on the driver . Now if the fresh air in door was stuck wouldn't it affect both sides ?

Chlorine in factory coolant has caused corrosion and damaged the heater core (there was a recall on this WWY-09 which my subaru dealer denied!) flushing wont help. Heater core needs to be replaced.

SOURCE: There's warm air blowing out of the driver-side

Most of the time the dash has to come out to access the actuators on the heater box.

I just spent five hours replacing the passenger side bulb because I did not know to leave the spring alone. I then replaced the bulb and when I went to check the headlight, the drivers side blew out. 5 minutes job turned into five hours.

Water is leaking in the passenger side floor when the ac is on. 2008 tribeca.

This means your air conditioner drain tube is clogged. This will take about a hour shop rate to repair or if you look behind the glovebox you will see it. Thanks
