[QUOTE="blazian87, post: 8593683, member: 574798"] [USER=672612]@DarkKnightSM[/USER]; Why don't you just try to drive it once a month or something? Then you wouldn't have this problem. If it were me, I would change it if it's been sitting there for a year without driving da m n. It's a small cost to pay if you're putting on 0 miles and paying no insurance. I have heard many times from several mechanics and very knowledgable car people that it's not good having a car sit around like that. I've even seen it first hand when my friend bought a car that had low mileage. The person who sold it did say it has been sitting around not being driven. One night it just wouldn't start up. I called AAA in the middle of the night to come check it out to see if they can help. The guy went underneath the car and start banging on something and the car barely got to work again. He's like.. this car hasn't been driven in a while huh? Luckily the car was driven pretty often after that and never had that problem again. I have my car in my sig stashed away in a garage not being driven either. But i still drive it once a month just to make sure all the oils and shitz will still be good. [/QUOTE]
