If it's at all like my G37, the radio presets and audio settings will be fine. I spent a bunch of time writing them down when I changed my battery, for no reason. The memory seat and the climate control settings will be lost, though.
Yeah, I don't even have tools for the battery anyway. It's a new car so didn't think I needed it and I needed the tiny trunk space for my luggage as I'll be here for 3 more weeks. I occasionally share this car with the wife and between the 20 preset radio stations for each of us (SXM + Local for NYC/DC), Bluetooth for both phones, heated steering setting, active lane assist, sport mode setting, etc, it just not worth to reset by pulling the battery when I know it's a loose gas cap. It's been sitting at more than 3/4 tank so maybe that's it.
