Well, peel back some of the carpet on both sides, turn the car on and have someone squeeze the top rad hose (after the cars warmed up, the system has to be pressurized)

Why do a half-assed thing like that? Just fix it. I never understand why nobody wants to fix the problem they just want to patch the problem

Jeez, Remind me to NEVER buy anything from you!!
Check the FSM. It will have detailed instructions on replacing the heater core.
Some heater cores are a bitch to get to. Ive never done one on a 7 so im not
sure how bad its gonna be for ya. Good luck!
