I’m a grad student going back home for winter break (about 6 weeks/1.5 months), and I plan to leave my car because driving it back home isn’t an option. I have a 2022 N Sentra SR. I’d be leaving it in an apartment parking spot (no garage, outside) since I can’t afford a storage/garage. I’m in Connecticut and winters aren’t super horrible (around 15-20 deg F at lowest). May be able to find someone to turn it on every once in a while, but this is unlikely. I’ve been looking online and have seen tips like adding a CTEK battery tender (although I don’t think I’ll have access to electricity), disconnecting or removing the battery entirely, making sure car tires are good, filling up on gas, keeping hand brake off, adding a fuel stabilizer, anti-freeze/coolants, car covers, etc. Any suggestions on which of these might be necessary for my situation? Any help or additional tips are welcome!

    1.5 months isn’t that long. Leave it in park without engaging emergency brake, with a full tank of gas, and you should be fine.
