This could be any number of things... I would recommend a dreaded trip to the Stealership... I'll keep you in my prayers.

sounds like either a heater core problem, or the cable thingy has come off of the temperature dial - hopefully the cable came off

when you turn the temp dial, does it feel like it has any resistance on it?

Check your water level. I had the same problem, no heat. I noticed I needed water in the radiator. I added about 1/2 gallon and now the heater works fine.

I had a problem where I got no heat @ my feet. Took to the stealership and it was a $10 motor than controls the vents on the floor.

Too bad it took 3 hrs of labor to fix the $10 part!

Good luck!

My wife's car was not getting warm at all. You could drive it for 50 miles and it was just barley starting to warm. Turns out that the Thermostat was butsted into about three different pieces. $8.00 later, and 20 min of work and the car was warm again.

I agree, start with the thermostat. You can do this yourself and you probably needed fresh coolant anyways!

Hey, I'm having the exact opposite problem. If you live anywhere near me, maybe we could trade Expy's from time to time. Mine blows ONLY heat in the front. I'm willing to trade!
