It used to be really efficient but now although air is fairly cold the blower gradually fades after about 30/40 mins to almost no air at all even when 25 deg plus outside and set to 14 on both sides. Will blow stronger if set to low but will only go to max if set on manual and then air is not as cold. Dealer has looked 4 times but won't wait until it happens and then says it is ok @cos it is at first.
Under warranty so any ideas what I can look at or how to get help?

Could the heat exchanger be freezing up (not allowing air to pass through because is clogged with frost)?

Don't know I had a similar issue a few weeks back, climate set to 21 vents ice cold but no air flow, turned off breifly then back on and ok for a short time.

I suppose let it happen again then park up at home and leave for a whle and see how much water has dripped out of the aircon under the car.
