I have a 2002 Tracker with about 160,000 km on it and have no heat. I've had the thermostat replaced and the system cleaned and flushed. At this point the mechanic says that the next step is to replace the heater core but that's a $500 Cnd part and 7 hours labour!! Unfortunately it's no longer on warranty but as it's not even 5 years old I don't understand why this is happening. Any hints/ideas/suggestions? Anyone else have a similar problem?

I'd be doubtful it's the heater core , if they did a flush they would have found out if it was plugged or leaking at that time.
It could be something more simple like a rad cap or the diverter door not functioning. I'm unfamiliar if you have a cabin air filter which may be plugged.
Since the Tracker is a Suzuki you might also try their forum as well.
