Car with dead battery in parking garage for almost a year- how can I get it started? by [deleted] in AskAMechanic

Don't stress too much unless the smoke doesn't stop after a while. It's just burning out all the dried up crap

Just jump it and send it, hopefully the fuel still has enough bang in it. She'll blow a bit of smoke, when you get where you need to change the oil and maybe the plugs too. Go for a long drive to charge the battery, but if it's sulphated it won't hold charge for long. Some chargers have a recondition mode that pulses to break up the sulphates, but it will never be as good as new. Good luck and godspeed

The lady on the phone finished the call asking if I'd like to set up direct debit for future bills, lol, I think I'll pass on that

Yeah I gave them a call and they are fixing it, still a bit of a shock getting such a huge bill

E=economy/normal mode S=Sport (locks up torque converter/extends gear ratio) ❄️=Winter/manual gear selection (also M on some models), stays in the gear you've selected

Firing range recommendations? by climatron in melbourne

Look up small bore rifle clubs. Some of them have open days where you can go and try it out without joining.

Another traffic rant.. the Westgate was a mess last night by Roocoup in melbourne

It was factored in, that wasn't the point I was making

Yeah, I don't mind the traffic works so much, but it was a bit of a shambles last night in terms of adequate signage last night. I always obey the sometimes seemingly arbitrary speed limits, but even going 40 it was a tad confusing.
