Now that winter is finally over here in Ohio (I hope so)...What is the best way to clean the engine compartment? When I bought my HHR the engine compartment was detailed by the dealer. What do you they use or what is the best method to clean it? I read/heard you need to protect the alternator. TIA for the suggestions.

Give this thread a read, and avoid a power washer unless you're 110% sure you know what you are doing, good luck!
