Could be some of your vents blocked up. My Cav used to have some in the rear/boot behind panels, not sure if the Calibra has similar. Not something I've had to do.

Once blocked they will make your car steam up very quickly inside.

Great guide - i did mine a while back - but if anyone is interested i have a brand new heated seat element for sale - i bought this first then found out it was just the wire that had broken
Hi I worked for the V6 Engine Plant for 13 years carrying out durability tests and warranty issues.this job included many trips to USA,Sweden and Germany. My oppo and I bought all the factory tools for the V6 when it closed and repair V6 engines at weekends. also have tech 1 and 2. will answer any v6 questions you have.
