Heater Core Replacement

-I do not answer you question but give you some suggestion before replace it.
-Why need to replace..?
-No heat ? Not the heater core
-Leak from the core...? Do pressure check for sure before replace.
-Most heater core last for the life of the car. Unless it's very corrosion and broken.

Good luck better fix quickly otherwise will drive with out heat.

Thanks

Sounds like a air lock in interior heater core, remove one heater hose under hood and make sure you have flow through heater core. Some vehicles have a valve that controls coolant flow through heater, check on hose for that if no coolant comming out of inter heater hoses.

is your car running at normal temperatures? possibly bad heater core. the flaps that direct the air flow in the vents may not be working properly. and has it always had this problem you may want to see if someone has bypassed the heater core there are two coolant lines going into your firewall right next to each other. sometimes when the heater core goes bad people will do this to get by but if youve had heat before than this off course would not be the problem

• Procedures for replacing the heater core vary with the year, make, and model of car. It threfore necessary to consult the manufacturer's repair manuals for the proper procedure for replacement.

The heater housing is disassembled to get to the heater core. Heater Core

• Remove the heater coolant hoses.
• Remove the cable and/or vacuum control lines (if equipped).
