If there is a temperature difference between the driver's side and passenger's side air vents, it means one of the actuators that open and close the air valves is damaged; this actuator is located behind the centre console where the entire air distribution system is situated.

To access and replace it, you must remove the glove compartment from the passenger side; start by removing the side cap of the dashboard, then take off the cover under the dashboard and finally remove the entire glove box. At this point, you can easily access the actuator and replace it. Perform a functionality check before reassembling everything.
