228i / N20 - Aircon doesnt get cold anymore

Hey guys aircon doesn't get cold anymore for some reason. It's extremely weak and gets warm in some cases.

Could this be something apart of something major? Cars 2014 Model not much KMS on it. Still under warranty but ill be ringing BMW and have it taken into have a look.

But should i be worried? It can't be a re-gas problem or something as cars relatively new?

Thanks!

My cooler below I drive screen was actually turned to the Red Side/Hot

Being my first BMW i only thought the temperature listed mattered.

Took it to the dealership and they showed me that lol.

Repair

New 228i back from dealer after big repair. Diagnosis was leaking hose from condensor to compressor. Appears that evaporator was also changed. So far so good.

I had a similar issue a while back where mist could be seen coming in and blowing hot air. There was a small leak in one of the pipes. Dealer replaced the pipe and haven't had an issue since.
