Washed it for the first time today. (deionizer rules)

Question: What happens to all the water I squirted into and around the engine cover/louvers? Does it drain well? Or should I be taking some precautions to not get too much water in there?

Airbox has drainholes, so shouldn't be a problem.

Drains well. Still drive it a few miles after washing to aid the process, you know, just before you detail under the front and rear lids, the rear spoiler, door jambs and undersides.

Just start and idle it, no big deal.

Not a problem. If it bothers you, simply open the engine door, water will simply pour down inside engine cover, wipe it up, then start the car for about 3 minutes, then turn off. The residual heat will evaporate all the moisture

Thanks Moe. I like your video.

Parking break(?) seems to get angry if you leave car to dry w/o moving wheels. I thought I was stuck one time before it clonked loudly and allowed me to back up, lol.
