    Having first real problem with my '06 GT. My heat is barely warm. Temp gauge is a little flakey but more or less normal. I'm concerned it might be the climate control unit. I havent checked the heater core hoses yet, but plan to on next day off. Anyone had similar issues?? Anyone know how expensive the climate control unit is?? How hard is a heater core replacement?? Any help would be appreciated.

    id first start with checking coolant.

    maybe its time for a flush and new thermostat. bleed all the air out and see if anything changes.

    For my moms car (07) I had to jack the front end up to bleed all the air out. Heat works amazing now
