I have very little heat, have changed thermostat, serpitine belt, had system flushed, rebuilt water pump 1 year ago, as far as cardboard in front of radiator with no help. Next is heater core, unless you know of other causes. Was quoted 475.00 to have heater core replaced. Can you please help?????

HI there,

I would first try flushing the heater core as it may be partly blocked, undo the two heater hoses and gently flush with a hose, depending on where the heater control valve is you may have to have this on as well.
