Storing Your Car
If you need to park your car for an
extended period (more than 1
month), there are several things you
should do to prepare it for storage.
Proper preparation helps prevent
deterioration and makes it easier to
get your car back on the road. It is
best to store your car indoors if at all
possible.
Fill the fuel tank.
Change the engine oil and filter
(see page 146 ).
Wash and dry the exterior com-
pletely.
Clean the interior. Make sure the
carpeting, floor mats, etc. are
completely dry.
Leave the parking brake off. Put
the transmission in Reverse
(manual) or Park (automatic).
Block the rear wheels.
If the car is to be stored for a
longer period, it should be sup-
ported on jackstands so the tires
are off the ground.
Leave one window open slightly (if
the car is being stored indoors).
Disconnect the battery.
Support the front wiper blade arms
with a folded towel or rag so they
do not touch the windshield.
Apply a silicone spray lubricant to
all door and trunk seals. Also, apply
wax to the painted surfaces that
mate with the door and trunk seals.
Cover the car with a "breathable"
car cover, one made from a porous
material such as cotton. Nonporous
materials, such as plastic sheeting,
trap moisture which can damage
the paint.
If possible, run the engine for a
while periodically (preferably once
a month).
If you store your car for 12 months or
longer, have your Acura dealer
perform the inspections called for in
the 24 months/48,000 km (30,000
miles) maintenance schedule as soon
as you take it out of storage (see
page
138 ). The replacements called
for in the maintenance schedule are
not needed unless the car has actu-
ally reached that time or distance.
