Sgt1086 Neutral Newbie October 18, 2010 Share October 18, 2010 One week is okay unless your battery is already weak. If more then that I suggest to remove any one of the battery cable from the terminal using a plyer or spanner so when u come back just reconnect back and your car will start. However your car radio setting will reset to factory. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bird5011 3rd Gear October 18, 2010 Share October 18, 2010 One week not a big problem. Just choose a nice spot to park. if open car park, then be prepared for big clean up when returned. Bird poo, rain plus dust, dry leaves and etc..etc.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why expect battery to be dry when you come back? Ever excountered weaker engine after leaving it unused for a week (recovered normal performance after about three weeks usage later) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't really matter whether M Brand or K Brand. If thing happens it will happen. Recalling a K Car burnt itself away when parked at Carpark? The conclusion was due to short circuit, probably due to fault battery, I suspect. IMHO. Regards, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinydog Clutched October 19, 2010 Share October 19, 2010 I leave my car in Singapore for 6 months while overseas with no problem. Have been doing this for 30 years some time with the car I have in the UK during cold cold UK winters and the car wasn't garaged. 6 months... your battery is not a battery...
