I have the remote start alarm on a timer to start the engine about 15 minutes before I leave the house, even then, since all the airs blowing on the ice cold windshield, I barely get any warmth until I get to school. I plan on fixing everything on the car eventually, I just don't have the money or enough time to take teh car apart right now.
You've got vacuum leaks in one or several pods. These pods won't open their respective vacuum doors. The defrost pod is the default. When it fails to close, the door is wide open.

You cannot fix it unless you go though the system, locate the bad pods or switchover valves, and replace them. It's not a horrible job. Unfortunately, you must open up the system, find the bad pods, and wait until you get the new pods. It's difficult to drive the vehicle in the interim.......but.....not impossible.
