Here's my annual winter bedtime list:

- Fill gas tank.
- Wash, dry and wax
- Top treatment
- Clean interior
- Check CV boots
- Warm oil. Change oil and filter - 8.75 L (with filter). Torque drain plug 19 ft-lb (IMS Guardian or LN magnetic)
- Record mileage of oil/filter change and put sticker in window (+8000 km with Castrol Syntec 5W-40)
- Cut open filter and check for debris.
- Add fuel stabilizer.
- Drive just long enough for oil and stabilized fuel to circulate (5-10 minutes)
- Inflate tires to 58 psi, or max allowable (50 for current tires)
- Place in storage location.
- Leave out of gear. Emerg brake off. Block wheels.
- Block open frunk. Hook up battery maintainer.
- Put on cover

During storage:
- Move to avoid tire flat spots once a month

Spring start-up:
- Adjust tire pressure
- Drive!!
