The tube that is supposed to be cold initially starts out very cold but the longer the AC is on the less chilly that tube becomes.
It is odd how it will be cool for a little bit, turn off for like 5 minutes, rinse, repeat.....cold air....slowly gets warm.......turn off...wait.....and so on and so on
That is what a failing AC relay did on wife's former 2005 Subaru Legacy and also my 2007 Acura MDX......Both fixed for under $10 in 10 mins.....But I stated that before and not sure it is your culprit.
