Is it possible that in very very cold weather, the back window on a car can shatter?
I presume it is an old car like Ambassador. These cars have a dynamo for charging the battery. The dynamo cuts-in to charge only when you run above certain speed. If you happen to drive short distances in city and during nights with lights on the battery may not be charged at all. Get an Alternator fitted in place of the dynamo, you can overcome the problem. But if your car has already an alternator get the belt tightened. You can have a trickle charger at home and connect it to battery in the night - this would keep the battery in good condition. It is also possible that the engine has some problem and you have to crank repeatedly to start. In this case get the heater plugs checked and replace the defective- if any.How much is a Muffler for a car?

Is there a way to remove tint from a car window using some method that I haven't tried?
1)First of all make sure that your battery is good. Most auto stores will check it for free. If you battery is bad replace it.What could be wrong with my car?
2)Your alternator may not be charging the battery fully. Most auto parts stores will check an alternator for free also. Also, check the tension of your alternator belt. If it is too loose then your alternator isn't going to charge the battery, because the belt will be slipping.
3)Be sure that your battery terminals, and posts are free of corrosion. If they look corroded, unhook them and clean them off with a wire brush.

4)You might want to look into getting a block heater for your diesel. This will keep your engine oil warm when it's not running, and will eliminate battery hogging cold cranking in the mornings.
You just might be having a poor quality battery, especially since you say that it goes down in a cold climate. It is asking for a replacement.
What is the best method to straighten an aluminum 'bull-bar' without weakening the metal?
Your service centre would be topping up your battery with distilled water everytime you paid a visit. If you did not, it is a simple process to undertake every 3 months. If you replace your battery now, you can buy a maintenance free (closed) battery, which wont require any maintenance apart from cleaning terminals from time to time.
