I would be parking my Car in a closed garrage for 2-3 months (with a short run 1 or 2 times a month) as I would be travelling. Would appreciate if some advice could be provided by the AL memebrs on what should be done to keep the vehicle in good order while its parked. Also would like to know from where I could purchase a Steering Lock (the one that fits on the Steerng wheel) for the car. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Guys, Did some searches on this but couldn't find conclusive answers so here goes. Work related travel has forced me to leave my car (Lancer CS1) un-used for about 3 months. I thought of asking my wife (who doesn't drive) to start the car twice / thrise a week and let it idle for a while. Will doing that be enough or are there any specific tasks that i could do so that nothing would be wrong on my return ? A friend suggested that i leave the hand brakes off as prolonged usage of this could lead to binding etc... Any ideas, experiences, suggestions would be welcome. PS : The engine oil was changed around 1000km back, new plugs were put in around 400 Km back.
