I had the cabin blower motor replaced at about 160k miles, at at that time, the shop recommended replacing the heater core if it showed any signs of problems. It did not, so I didn't have it replaced. The car now has 329k miles on it, and still no problems with the heater core, though almost everything else except the turbo has been replaced at least once. I did have some coolant smell in the cabin many years ago (like 8), and at that point I put in Bars leak, and I think one other time, both right after a coolant change. The coolant smell went away. I did have the radiator replaced about a year and a half ago, but not related to clogging, just the usual cracked plastic end caps. So I say throw in the Bars leaks, just my opinion...
