Took the plunge - went through a car wash today!
After much thought on how to keep the car clean this winter, I decided screw it and I had it washed. The good news is there was no damage and she turned out great! I probably won't make this a regular habit, but I need to keep the dirt and salt off her as much as possible this winter.
TIP: always turn her off when going through. You need to have the fob inserted before putting it in neutral and shutting down. Let it glide a little at the end of the wash and quickly depress the brake and start her back up. I feel better now that the prize is clean. Gotta go, going to the cold garage to stare at her for awhile!! |

If you are worry about the potential damage to your E90, you can always use the “No Touch” car wash place. It is just like a gigantic dish washer Or vist one of those self car wash places with high pressure jet.
