A bit of a journey
Making a very long story short, I applied for and was accepted to Bring a Trailer to list my E92 for sale. I opted for the professional photographer option and BAT standards are so high we needed three photo shoots in order to get the pictures right.
So, from 1 June to last week I was all set to sell and then on the day it was to go live I just couldn't pull the trigger. So I am keeping it. It's going into a storage unit for roughly three months and I am concerned about: 1. Getting flat spots on the tires. PS4's. Is this a valid concern and if so it will be tough to get it on jack stands. Is it better to underinflate the tires? 2. Do I disconnect the battery? Not an option to keep it on a trickle charger and if I need to disconnect it is it just a matter of disconnecting the negative cable? I really don't want to fry anything. I always planned on keeping this bad boy and soon it will be gracing the streets of North Florida. |

Lol, selling your baby is very difficult!!
1) My PS4S tires sat all winter (5 months) and they were not flat spotted. Keep them inflated - or even a bit over inflated. I also bought some cheap pads and set the tires on those. I have read that rigid foam works too. Allowing your suspension to hang for months is not the best option so I would avoid jacking it up. 2) Not 100% sure as to what is the best option here as I could use a battery tender. Any chance you could use a solar panel type charger? But you are correct - just disconnect the negative cable from the battery if you want to go that route. Happy storage!
