Cleaning the Max

Hey.. my car is pretty dirty right now..

I need a good wash interiorly and exteriorly... and also inside the hood..

i am a lil confuse about cleaning inside the hood.. what parts of the engine can i shine up.. i heard that it's not good to clean everything under the hood.. so what can i use to shine it up and clean everything up.. or should i say.. what should i be away from when i clean under the hood?

THanx

yeah, you know those truck stops by the big highways, there should be a place there that cleans all your undercarriage/engine bay with degreaser and a pressure washer for $10.

NOOOOO!!!!! I don't recommend that you clean under the hood. Maximas are very picky about taking showers and dont' act right after cleaning the engine bay and surroundings. All you have to do is get a damp cloth and clean whatever needs to be cleaned under the hood. The best way to get all the brake dust from your wheels is to take them off and do it right. Pressure hoses can only do so much. Good Luck!!
