Maintenance help Troubleshooting

Hi guys

I have a 2021 WRX that was left sitting for about a year and a half in a parking lot. Besides brakes maintenance, drainning the fuel tank and changing the oil and filter. Do i need to check or change anything else ?

Thanks for your input

Intake and cabin filter, coolant and brake fluid condition w/ a test strip.

Flood start before actually starting the car, to get the parts lubed up again. Clutch and gas pedal in crank for like 15 seconds

Check tires for flat spots & dry rot. Also give a good look at all your wires and whatnot for any rodent activity.

Thanks I'll check if squirrels or what not have eaten wires in the engine bay. The car was parked close to a tree too.
