Hey Todd, I just had the evaporator replaced on my 97. I had the dealer do
after spending a whole weekend taking down the dash then puting it back
together after i decided that i didn't want anymore headaches. I think total
cost of the job was around $1,100. Knocking on wood the heater core has
been fine.. They could be replacing it just because they allready have the
dash tore out?? Have you ever had to refill the radiator, or noticed any
leaks coming from the heater core??...
