Mothballing an acclaim

...

I DON'T need to use my 2001 Holden Commodore Acclaim, but I would like to keep it. Can you give me a list of ``must dos'' when it sits in the garage?

It is not a good idea to leave a car sitting, so have a plan to take it out regularly. You'll warm up the engine, transmission and rear axle and circulate oil through vital components. Buy a battery conditioner and leave it hooked up to the battery. Change the oil and the coolant, say every year.
