2013 and A/C air conditioning not cooling

2013 M5---my a/c works but does not cool effectively. Has anyone had similar issue? My dealer thinks there may be a leak but already had it in for recharge...

On the side of the vents there is a little vertical dial you can rotate from red to blue. Dial is right beside the lock/emergency blinker. Is it all the way to the blue area? I thought my AC was weak then realized I had it set to the red area causing it to be warmer.

Same issue on my 2013. There was a leak and they had to replace the whole compressor . Thankfully it was under warranty.

Had the same issue on my F10 550xi, apparently it was due to the low voltage on the battery... weird.
