Reviving after 2 years

Thanks

Shouldn't be too bad. Put some fresh gas in the tank, maybe change the oil/coolant.

I would also pull the fuse for the ECU and crank the car over until you get oil pressure. Cars that sit a long time will drain all the oil down into the oil pan and the turbos are totally dry, this is really hard on the turbo bearings.

After sitting that long, I'd do the following:
Drain fuel tank and change the fuel filter.
Check underhood for any evidence of rodents.
Flush the brake fluid.
Change Oil and filter.
And do as Dale suggested to get good oil pressure before runing the engine.
