I Have Not Used My Car For 8 Weeks by drpossibilities(op): 6:50pm On May 01, 2016

Hello friends! This platform is such a wonderful platform for getting very useful information and I appreciate every member of this forum.

I had to leave Lagos about 8 Weeks ago (about 2 Months now) as a result of relocation to the Niger Delta region where I got a new employment. Since I wasn't familiar with the particular city I relocated to (Warri to be precise), I decided to leave my car behind in Lagos.

I just came in to Lagos today and for those 8 Weeks, the car was not used and my brother-in-law with whom I left the car forgot to remove the battery. However, when I started the car, it started immediately without any sign that it had not been used for 8 whole Weeks. All my brother-in-law's cars are automatic as he doesn't know how to drive manual cars and mine is manual so he never used it during the period. The sound is still very much okay. I intend driving down back to Warri with it during the week but I need to confirm if there are any checks I need to do to be on a safe side.

I'll appreciate your always helpful comments.

Many thanks.

Best regards.
