Buying a used heater core: what to check

  1. Ask for the donor vehicle's mileage. Lower-mileage parts carry more remaining life and resale value.
  2. Confirm the warranty. Many salvage yards offer 30–90 day guarantees; some sell extended coverage.
  3. Verify fitment against your VIN or the part number on your old unit, not just year and model.
  4. Ask whether shipping and any core charge are included in the quoted price.
