Before taking the side panels off of the center console, check the carpet and pad next to the console for antifreeze leak. Also check the expansion tank level, you may be down a tad.
For a picture discussion on how to replace the heater core, if that is the problem: http://www.volvospeed.com/vs_forum/index.php?showtopic=9717

Remember, if the pad under the carpet is wet, it takes forever to dry. At least a week with the car parked in the sun :(
