G running hotter then normal?
I don't know if this is normal but, the G is the only car I have driven that put outs a huge amount of heat after driving.
after a short drive or so, I park the car in the garage and the garage get hot as hell.
This didn't happend when I drove the 07 sedan loaner, or my old integra.
Even when I step out the car, I can feel a huge amount of heat just coming out of the car.
Is this normal? I checked my oil and its still near the full line. Coolant is at max.

Ok sorry that was uncalled for... I've been reading some of your other posts and frankly tired of hearing about how great Honda/Acura and their obsolete V-TEC is, etc.. unfair, my bad.
Yes, I notice my G disspates a lot of heat as well. I think it is normal. You should be looking at your temp guage in the car to judge if it is within normal tolerance. If the car is happy with the temp, it is probably fine, these cars have a lot of sensors and protect themselves.
As for the heat disspation, it seems Nissan tried to make it so the engine would disspate heat very well, rather than contain it. That's probably a good thing.
Anyway, if it feels extra hot to you and especially if you smell anything (like after driving especially hard), pop your hood open in the garage and run the car w/ the A/C on. It will cool it down VERY quickly this way. Probably unnecessary, but if it makes you feel better, cool. I've done it after a long highway trip at fairly high speeds made my car seem extra hot when I got home.
