What dtech said. But I will add that I am starting to see a lot of evaporators on 9-5s. Fortunatly, the 9-5 is pretty easy to access. Do the dye thing and after a few days,pull the cabin filter out. The evaporator is right there and can be inspected with a UV light and a mirror.
While you are there, check the recirculation door and make sure that it works. 30% or better of the ones I check are inoperative and that can raise vent temp at least 10 degrees on a day like we have had this week in the NE US. Usually is a broken plastic link arm on the motor.
Good luck,
Steve C
