Hey there,

I have a car and unfortunately can't drive it until mid November (please don't ask why).

Will the be a problem in November if I start up the car after such a long time with no driving!
Or should I turn on the car every once in a while like once or twice a week and leave it on for 5 min or something!
Or just leave it be!

Cheers. Appreciate it.

No issues at all provided the car has a descent battery, one month is not long.

I had a MK 2 Cortina years ago, got 6 months for DIC, went out to the shed on the day I got my licence back and drove it 130 k , never missed a beat. Yes, I did charge the battery.

Just disconnect the battery or place it on a charge & maintain charger or charge it after 3 weeks.
