***IMPORTANT NOTICE***
We provide free heater core replacement procedures to our registered members. To register and gain full access, click here.
Our current heater core replacement procedures are listed on the left side of this page. While our goal is to eventually make this site the most complete collection of heater core replacement procedures on the Internet, it will take time to develop the site to that point. In the interim, we invite you to provide inputs to the effort, as discussed on this page. On the other hand, if your heater core is leaking, or has already failed completely, then you obviously cannot wait until we post the heater core replacement procedures for your vehicle. If you REALLY need reliable procedures NOW, we encourage you to take a look at the most comprehensive vehicle-specific automobile repair procedures available today. (These are the same repair procedures used by 70,000 professional automotive repair shops.)
Before you get started replacing your heater core, we encourage you to review our heater core related articles for valuable information on determining whether you really do have a bad heater core and our heater core removal tips and recommendations to avoid starting before you are fully prepared. Remember that once you start the heater core removal procedure, your vehicle will not be drivable until the job is completed. It may take a few hours or even a couple of days depending on what has to be disconnected or removed from your particular vehicle.
To help us determine which models are most important to our visitors, we encourage you to let us know what you are searching for. If procedures for your model are not yet listed, please use the comment section below to tell us the year/make/model and other particulars for the vehicle(s) for which you need heater core replacement procedures. Give as much details as possible about your vehicle. The number of requests for a particular model will determine the order that we will add the procedures.
Recommendation: If you need detailed heater core service procedures immediately that are not yet available on our site, or if the procedures we have do not provide enough details for you to feel comfortable replacing your own heater core, you might consider grabbing a copy of the Chilton's 1990-2000 Heater Core Service manual for 1990 - 2000 Domestic & Imported vehicles. It contains step by step procedures, detailed illustrations and exploded views, as well as easy-to-use manufacturer and model indexing with handy specifications or data charts.
If you have core replacement procedures for ANY model that you'd be willing to share, please send us a copy to procedures@heatercorereplacement.com . If we use your procedures, we will give you full credit for it and provide a backlink to your site. (See "Credits" section at the top of each sample procedure page.)
