"Are 940’s heater cores really that much easier to do that you knowingly bought the car anyway?"

Well, I'm hoping so. From the reading I've done, the 240 seems more involved: the whole dashboard has to come out. Guess I'll find out soon.

Yeah, I bought the car knowing it needed a heater core. It's a fine vehicle: 230K, nice leather interior, runs and drives like butter. I got two quotes from mechanics for doing the core, both were in the $1,000.00 range. The core itself is $100.00. The previous owner knew that he had a $1,500.00-ish car with a $1,000.00 problem, so I got it cheap.
