| It's fine. Just try not to spray directly onto electric parts (ie the generator/fuse box etc). And I usually let the engine run a few minutes after, to dry it all out. But if the engine is mounted upside down in your part of the world, perhaps you should get a lift to gain access . . . |

| AVOID IGNITION COILS!!!! In the B6/B7 world people have ruined many ignition coils. People wash the engine bay and spray the coils and ruin them. I simply spray the engine down with P21 Total Auto Wash, agitate with a brush, and wipe with microfiber.

| I had my 360 detailed just before I had my motorcycle accident. The electronic clutch sensor got wet and corroded. When I drove the car, the clutch was destroyed as a result. There are some engine parts that don't like water. |
