...okay, and you have to also be able to spell check when filling out your accident reports, better?
Doing well. Just painted my calipers red, ordered the rear SS Insignias and the visor decal. That's it for the car, I hope. Call me at work and tell me when you're gonna bring it to the station so I can stop by and see it.
'Till then,
I don't know if this was corrected on the C6, but GM specifically stated that water should not be used to clean the engine bay of the C5. They issed a TSB, as I recall, about a sensor going bad due to corrosion from water finding its way under something in or around the intake manifold.
I can't remember the specifics--perhaps someone else can.
Scissors is right - be very careful with water in the engine compartment - expecially in the air intake area. Getting the pleated air filter all wet is not very good for it, but getting water onto the airflow sensor can damage it permanently and it is expensive to replace.
Its probably better to carefully spray cleaner and wipe the engine compartment down than risk getting water into the intake.
