I’m planning on putting my 2006 Honda Civic Hybrid in my garage in San Francisco for 15 weeks. Are there special steps to take to store a hybrid for that period? I should mention I have almost zero car knowledge. So far the advice I have gotten is not hybrid specific but still needed: don’t set the emergency brake, leave a window open a crack, stuff a rag in the tailpipe so critters won’t enter, change the oil and filter before storing. I’ve heard competing ideas on leaving a full tank and leaving as little gas as possible. Any advice for clueless in California?
Clueless:
3.5 months is nothing. It sat on the dock and at the dealers for longer than that. Roll the windows up TIGHT to keep the critters out of the car. No special steps are needed until the time frame goes beyond 6 months…Use the search feature of this board to view thousands of posts on this subject…
