Need to store the S4 for the Winter, Any Suggestions?
I am at school until next May and unfortuneatly i have to store the S4 somewhere. Right now it is on the side of my house with a cover on it, i was thinking of getting something like a carcapsule. (www.carcapsule.com) Does anyone have any suggestions?

if it's staying outside, do not leave a cover on it
if it is going to sit, put something in the gas to keep it from going bad. Make sure you don't the tires too much as they may get flat spotted from sitting. Try not to leave it in grass.

Something to keep moisture down....
If you park a car on bare earth or gravel, water evaporating out of the ground will condense on the bottom of the car, rusting out the undercarriage. Audi bodies are pretty good, but all the bolts, suspension, and lines will rot out.
Use an old pool cover or some other thick plastic fastened to the ground. Leave the car uncovered to keep moisture from being trapped. The best possible storage is a garage. The worst possible storage is a car parked on bare earth with a plastic cover over it.

i always take my wheels off and wrap them in plastic tight and tape them up,,,
then i put the car on jackstands obviously (prevents blown shocks). I then wrap the brakes in plastic and tape them up. i also cover the car (in garage)due to snow tripling the UV factor.

Rent a climate controlled storage unit...might run 100 bucks a month and have a friend drive her once every couple of weeks to keep her fresh....
