How often should a car be started if it's not driven for a long time?
1 Answers
If a car is not driven for a long time, it should be started approximately once a week to ensure the proper functioning of various fluids in the engine and the car battery. If the car is not started for an extended period, the engine oil will stop flowing, which can affect the normal operation of the engine after startup and may also cause the car battery to lose charge. The maintenance methods for a car that is not driven for a long time include: 1. Starting the vehicle regularly to prevent engine issues; 2. Cleaning the exterior and interior of the vehicle in advance; 3. Covering the vehicle with a car cover and parking it in a garage or on a flat surface away from direct sunlight to prevent paint damage or fluid leakage; 4. Regularly checking and maintaining the car battery to prevent it from losing charge.
