My battery has died, had to jump the car (2008 9-5 SW) this afternoon after sitting for two days. The radio has already reset to 12:00am but the door locks still work.
Want to replace the battery myself tomorrow. For how long can the car be without a battery, to avoid any issues? I either buy a new one and put it in and then I have to dispose of the old one. Or I take the old one out, run with other car to store and get a new one and I can dispose of old one at the same time. But this means the car will be without a battery for at least an hour, maybe 2 hours.
Sorry for simple question but just a DIY beginner.
Thanks,
Lolke
