07 TL no heat most times

I recently purchased an 07 TL with 237,000 miles on it. Come winter time, car has no heat, most of the time. I have flushed the heater core, changed the thermostat and the water control valve. I can’t seem to get heat and when I do it doesn’t last long and is not hot or even close to hot. Any suggestions? I’ve read through some threads and got some great ideas to try but it’s cold and I don’t want to work outside any longer than I have to. Thanks in advance

Yes rad is full, heater hoses hot. I’m going to disconnect the cable from the hcv and wire tie it open. I was thinking maybe it was closing on my trip home. I’m not sure though, my car never has heat. Only once or twice I’ve had heat.

So after I let the car heat up, the lower hose wasn’t hot at all. Changed the newly replaced thermostat, now the out heater hose is cold. Going to flush the core again. I think when I changed the hcv some of the soft brittle plastic got into the core
