    Rough idle while in drive but not in park - 2012 3.8

    Noticed the other day that the car has a noticably rougher idle while in drive but not while in park. I'm taking it to the shop for new tires and breaks tomorrow, any suggestions for potential issues they could check while they have the car? Thanks in advance!

    Heavy Coolant smell at light but no leak, losing coolant somewhere!?

    So i just had my 3.8 engine replaced last week and ever since then there is this extremely strong smell of coolant i can’t find it leaking below the engine or in the front by radiator.

    Choice between 2011 Infiniti M37 with 140,000 miles or 2012 Hyundai Genesis 3.8 with 170,000 miles

    I've been in a serious dilemma with choosing which car to buy, my boss says Infiniti due to reliability though I thought the genesis would be more reliable. What are everyone's choices with which car is good with speed, low maintenance and reliability, I'll be putting synthetic oil and premium gas?

    First Generation 2012 Genesis Sedan Tires

    I recently purchased a 2012 Genesis sedan (3.8L ) and want to upgrade my tires from some no-name tires it came with. I live in the south so snow/ice aren't factors, but I do get a substantial amount of rain. What are everyone's recommendations for good traction and low cabin noise?
