Mine has been in the garage for as long as 3 months. It's starts up right away and drives as expected. Just wondering what the hibernation would do to the car?

Battery life
Mine lasted four weeks and the baterry was completely dead. Re-set absolutley everything and now the seat belt presenters don't work (I've tried the fuse, but it's OK). So, it's back to MB to get everything reset and try to find where the electrical fault is as it shouldn't go that flat so quick.
BTW - anyone know where the last bolt is to get the battery out?

I guess it would be interesting to create a thread, as to whats the best method of storing your CLK say for short-term storage 1-2 months.
- is it better to unplug one terminal of battery? and replug on return?
- is there need to add something to fuel tank?
- are there other things needing to be done, like draining radiator etc
