Before you go crazy chasing stuff around make sure the A/C system is fully charged!

IIRC a low charge will cause what you are experiencing.

Probably just low on refrigerant, but it's easy enough to diagnose. Read through Steve Brotherton's article here: link, put the climate control in diag mode, and post up the values of items 1-10 from the display. While the car is running, and has been running for a few minutes, BTW. The numbers will tell whether you have a leaking duo-valve or not.

Unless Mercedes turns the heater on for the driver side, the A/C has a good charge, as the passenger side blew pretty cold.
