GT been stored 3 months. I retrieve her from lock up Thursday.
Anyone done a start up like this before?

Will I need to jump start?
Are all my settings, Sync 3 etc back to factory default?
Do I need to unlock her with that metal master key into the door handle?

I once needed a jump start after just a few days of idleness.

Got inside as normal but it didn't kick over.

Will be interested to see how it goes.

:thumbsup:

Did your wheels warp when you kept it in storage for 3 months?

The manual suggests that remote unlock will be disabled - ie you will need to let yourself in with the actual key.

Storage manager told me he fired her up about six weeks ago when I emailed him suggesting that. No issues - started straight away.
Started her again today before my arrival.
Remote fobs working.
Memory all intact.
No need for jump start.
That's with one start in three months.
Relieved not to be prising off door handle caps and using master keys.

Now, you just need some good weather, in the worlds most livable city, (sic) to get that top down.:D

Didn't wait 48 years to drive roof up.
