Default No heat drivers side

Hi guys
did a search and didnt quite come up with much, want to see if any one esle has had/fixed a similar problem.
when I have heater turned in, temp up to full heat, only the passenger side is getting heat? drivers side blows cold air!
I have played with all the settings in Idrive without success!
anyone had this issue?

I've had the same issue for many months. Thought it might be a fuse.
The problem mysteriously solved itself, so I don't have an answer, but will be very interested if anyone else knows what solves this problem.

Wish I had your luck..LOL
I can't get heat at either side on the feet, footwells on both sides only give me lukewarm air no matter what the settings in iDrive are.....
Tried everything I can think of, lots of heat from the top or front vents when iDrive control is set to red and cold when set to blue but no matter what feet are always lukewarm with very little airflow...beginning to hate this car or the BME HVAC Engineer responsible for this ...!!

Love to heat any suggestions of how to fix this.

Had a similar problem about two years ago, I coded the IHKA module back to default that solved the issue.

weird this issue got brought up and noticed today... axtually fixing this problem on a buick lacurn. to keep it short and simple we had to rip the whole and i mean whole dash apart.
could be the blend door/actuator. actuator goes bad, the door wont open and heat will only be blown out of half the vents,
