Hey,
I have the same concerns, I want to store my car for the winter and am not sure what steps to take. I was going to add a fuel additive, hook up a battery tender and maybe put it up on jack stands. The jack stands are more so it would take a major effort on my part to take out than anything to do with getting flat spots on the tires. If you find out any additional steps that should be done to winterize the car please forward them Thanks MHB |

I would recommend a battery tender so you can keep the battery alive and computer information programmed without having it resest if the battery should die. Not a big deal if it does though. I would also suggest to start the car once a week.
Put a car cover on it as well and you should be all set to go!! Take the car out for a ride once in a while as well if the weather is decent so you can get everything lubricated and running right. I hope this helps |
