Not sure what else it can be. I already replaced the thermostat and made sure it was full of coolant. My dash Is completely cracked so it Might not be to hard.

You don't have to remove the dash, just the glove box. it's a 2 hour job.

Its a 30 min job. remove glove box, bolts to heater core cover. remove hoses to heater core, replace heater core, plug hoses back up, tighten bolts to cover back down, replace glove box, fill coolant and ride out
