I'll be taking the 05 out from winter storage in a week or two. Aside from the standard oil change, is there anything else I should be thinking about doing after 6 months of storage? This is the first time I've ever stored a car.

Thanks.

Might want to teach the car how to run (Idle and fuel trim strategy) again if you disconnected the battery and removed it. Read in owners manual how to do so. Page 207 under Maintenance and Specifications. Here's a link

I'm taking mine out as soon as the snow is gone!! can't wait... almost like last year when I was waiting for her to arrive!!
