Hi AcuraZine Community,

I am trying to diagnose an issue with our 07 TSX. The AC only blows cold out of the passenger side when driving at higher speeds. When the car is driving slower/idling the AC is not ice cold anymore. Air flow coming out of the drivers side is always warm.

Things I've checked:
- The fan spins
- Compressor turns on when I hit the AC button
- Checked the lower value with A/C pro and it seems to be on the correct level

Every now and then when we are driving at higher speeds and the AC is blowing cold, we notice a light smoky mist coming from the passenger blowers.

I am ready to take it into a professional but wanted to get the community opinion on the matter.

Thank you.

 

Had the same problem on my son's 2004 Accord (mechanically similar to TSX). I searched internet and it was recommended to have Freon charge checked. Brought to mechanic and he added some. Problem gone.

 

Is there a chance of too much Freon being added? I felt like it was already topped off according to the gauge.
