Winter storage ?

Does anyone know if i can take the battery out of my srt8 with push button start for the winter and have put it back some summer with no issues?

RE: Winter storage ?

Might just want to invest in a battery tender. Will maintain a charge on the battery without compromising the car.

RE: Winter storage ?

I would think that unhooking the battery for that length of time might also cause you to loose all info you may have saved in your my gig if you have it.

RE: Winter storage ?

Im curious about this as well. Im constantly going out of town for 3-4 months at a time. I dont have access to an outlet when my car is in storage for these trips, so I have to disconnect the battery to keep it from dying in my BMW. When I hook it back up, I have to put the code in to unlock my radio.

I wonder if the MyGig requires a code like that? I read on another post there was something to do with the steering or front suspension you had to calibrate by turning the wheel back and forth from lock to lock in order to clear a fault light on the dash. Also, Im pretty sure your CPU will have to re-learn your driving habits.
