The last 1 and 3 yrs parked it was stored indoors, while previous 1.5 and 1.5 yrs. it was parked outdoors.
But was very clean now,,

P.S. After not changing the oil for 7 yrs, I had changed it about 1 year ago

After parked for 1 year, I now try to run it every 2-3 days,about 10km each.
I will try for this whole April month to see if the inhibitor problem will cease.

It seems that same things happened to my 1999 Audi A6 4.2 with 123,000km
Parked similarly, it got a gear sensor issue as well, whereas when put in reverse, light comes up and car goes limp. I have to restart and go only forward. But after regular use for the past year, the problem is now solved, even put in reverse, no problem.

Hopefully, it’s the same as the SVX
