Thanks again for the help.

I thought for a second today that the problem had miraculously cured itself. It is only in the mid 70's today and the vehicle seemed to cool down nicely. However, sticking a thermometer into the vents still showed a difference... 55 in front and 41 in rear.

My mechanic is betting on the blend door. I guess I am skeptical that this problem wouldn't somehow be related to the new compressor work....Who knows, maybe it has been a problem for a while, but not noticable without an assist from the Carolina heat and humidity. Any idea on cost involved in fixing a blend door??

Just for my own education/curiosity, maybe you can help me understand the system a bit better. In the attached jpeg, the ice cold cooling pipe splits into two... the top is very cold, but the other is only slightly cool. Why?

Will be taking it in next week. I'll post an update when the problem is solved.

Thanks again.
