I took the X5 in for service on the A/C and a state inspection. They found the refrigerant 30% low. He claimed the system will sacrifice the passenger and rear systems first if its low. That's why I felt the passenger side warmer.

They found no leaks so we'll see if it stays fixed. Good timing too with days in the mid 90s already..

PS: I recall thinking last fall when I bought it that the system didn't seem as good as previous BMWs. I wonder if it was low from the factory?
