Winter Storage
Hello all. I searched, but did not find what I was looking for, so...
I will be garaging my 335d for the winter, rather than exposing her to the salt and sand of the New England roads. Should I preform any sort of winter storage preparations? (The garage is temperature and humidity controlled.) -I was planning on using a trickle charger to maintain the battery. Is this advisable? Any additional measures required? -Should I use a fuel additive, and if so, which? Thanks in advance, Look forward to hearing your responses. |

I'm planning to store mine this winter outside for the first time in New England. I'm going to:
Overinflate tires Add fuel stabilizer and drive it a few miles to cycle through Add desiccant to interior Add dryer sheets and wire gauze to intake and exhaust pipes and throughout the interior to keep out mice Wash it real good and wax it and throw a fitted car cover on it. Disconnect battery and bring inside to store Last year I kept it in a garage that was no temperature regulated and I started the car once every few weeks and left it on a trickle with no other maintenance and it was fine when I drove it in the spring
