AFFECTED VEHICLES:

DESCRIPTION:

VCNA suggests that in general engines and engine compartments not be washed with high pressure water due to the following points:

^ Increased amount of electronic equipment installed in the compartment.

^ Run off water could be contaminated with toxic fluids if there are leaks present.

The components are protected from road water spray with various devices such as the lower splash shield and weather proof seals on the protective

covers, but are not designed to prevent high pressure water from getting in.

The areas circled are very sensitive to direct water pressure and should be avoided.
