S80 Into Storage
 
I am moving overseas for 2 years and am planning on putting my T6 into storage.

Is there anything I should be doing to make sure there is no deteriation for when I get back.

I would try to run it out of gas.
Also make sure it has fresh oil and other fluids in it.

You might also want to have someone check on it from time to time to make sure the tires don't go flat.

Boy if you could have someone drive it every so often, maybe a family member because a car sitting up is the worst thing to do. I'm speaking from experience. I almost bought a Monte Carlo with very low miles on it a few years back and noticed after test driving it that it had oil leaks from where gaskets dried out. He said an old lady owned it. Just saying "beware".
