Just got some tires from tireack rack: 235/45-18s Conti DW - DOT says 2109. Tires are basically 2 years old: Should I have them installed? Seems old to me. I also ordered a tire for my spare and it was 1711 so basically brand new.

Were there two different types of radiators supplied on a 2003 G35 sedan 5AT?

^The early ones have clutch fans, and the newer ones have electric fans. I'm not sure if the radiator itself changed though

I had my mechanic replace it. He's out of town now, the coolant is at the
at the max mark and there isn't any leaks anymore. could it be the
thermostat???

^It could be, but the VQs are very prone to issues with air/steam bubbles.

could a bad battery cause a headunit to act up? it's been a while since the ipod setting in my double din wasnt working and recently it's been acting up changing stations by itself, touch screen buttons not working properly. Today my battery was dead i'm like WTF? i jumped my car drove to work for 5 mins turned off the car and it died again. Jumped it back up and let the car running for 20 mins. When i got out of work car barely started. I confirmed with a mechanic that the battery was done. I replaced it today got a great deal ($60.00) and now the radio is working normally and the ipod is working, i hope it stays this way

^Low voltage makes all kinds of electronics act screwy.
I'm surprised your HIDs didn't act up.

True. But when the Mechanic tested it he said it wa charging when the car was running but when I turned the car off is when it'd start to drain
