First off, don't start it; you'll do way more harm than good. Secondly, I do not recommend disconnecting the battery; you'll clear all the DME coding and have to start over next spring (the DME stores all sorts of system ready codes).

Get a battery tender as soon as possible...these cars have strange things happen when the battery gets low, so why risk it for $35 to $50?

The last time I drove my car was Oct. 11th. I had to shut her down a little early this year because we were selling our house and moving. She was put into winter hibernation on Oct. 19th.

I use the Porsche battery tender.

Won't start the car until late March or early April. I am half-way through winter storage! :dance:
