This summer while I am "out of town" I will have to store my C7 unattended for two months in a commercial storage facility with no AC to hook up a tender.
It seems the prevailing wisdom is to disconnect the battery in this situation. My question is: What happens to the settings and what is necessary to properly bring the car back to life?
Specifically:
1) Do I lose and therefore need to reprogram infotainment settings?
2) I have my npp set open(off). Does it revert back to the default setting of "auto"?
3) Does the ECM lose its memory of learned engine operation? If so what is the impact?
4) What is the best technique for disconnecting/reconnecting the battery?
5) What other issues or considerations should I be aware of?
You can answer one or more of the Qs and refer to the Q number above to provide input. Thanks in advance for your help.
