Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Folks Quick check in for some feedback on car storage. I moved my car to an area that has and incline. I would estimate the the grade would be approx 6" -12" lower front to back Question ? should I store the car "rear end" down hill. or " nose" down hill. My thought "rear" down hill, as less pressure / oil level ,and related contaminates would be on the RMS/IMS seals. This storage is not extended (maybe a few weeks at a time between weekend driving ) but might be long term. 3-6 months until we can garage / level store the car. Any feedback is greatly appreciated - Thank You Mark .

POST 2Original post

My money is always on attending to the IMS over the oil seals that generally demonstrate great reliability. Keep the IMS as wet as possible. Personally, I would always park rear end uphill. Never downhill! Johan

Hint: Just buy one of those to level out the rear wheels. https://raceramps.com/ Our host sells them and I'd recommend this one so you can get the car level just right. Put a small bubble level on top of the gearbox tunnel to determine when the car is level. https://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/ksearch/PEL_search_2016.cgi?command=DWsearch&description=Race+Ramps+ You'll need to park about 18 to 24 inches closer to the sidewalk to give you room to drive forward and remove the race ramp.
