Staying on top of routine radiator maintenance for your 2009 Infiniti FX35 is crucial to keep your engine in the best possible shape for years to come. To keep your radiator functioning, Infiniti recommends replacing your antifreeze or coolant at scheduled intervals but it’s also wise to keep an eye out for signs of a failing radiator.
