2003 Forester has very little air coming out of vents.

Hello everyone,

I have a 2003 Forester that has low air flow thru the vents if you try to use the AC or heater.

If you turn the speed from 1-4 you can hear the blower fan turning faster but the air coming out of the vents is very low. YOu can hardly feel it. I checked to see if there was a cabin filter and there was none.

Even though you can barely feel the air coming out, when on AC the air feels cold and when on heat it feels hot.

Any ideas what this can be? Thanks

Has happened to me several times, both on a forester and on a rav4. As soon as the weather cools friendly little critters decide to nest in the AC ducts. Air feels warm or cold but does not blow very hard. Might require a dealer to clean out the ducts.
