Cranking up commodore

...

I OWN a 1997 VS Commodore Acclaim that hasn't been used for six months. The battery is flat and I intend to replace it, but is there anything else I should check or replace?

CHECK the oil levels in the engine and transmission and the fluid level in the power steering. Other than that, I wouldn't be changing anything, but if it was 12 months I would definitely replace the engine oil, coolant and brake fluid and I'd re-gas the aircon.
