forwards and backwards a few times gets it all nice and dry, you can then change the cotton wool for a larger piece and wrap the whole car up.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

13 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi everyone! After the winter driving, any suggestions regarding jet washing or steam cleaning the underside of our prized motors? Having a C4S, it was really good in the snow (until I picked up a puncture), and with all the driving about on the salty n gritty roads, where in North Yorkshire could I have it cleaned? I guess it would have to be up on a ramp to effectively have all the nook & crannies done? All the best for 2010!!

POST 2Original post

A very good question :thumbs: but not one I can answer

POST 4Original post

:floor: :floor: :floor: :hand: this is a 996 thread, not a 993 thread

POST 5Original post

And you 993 boys get through cotton buds like nobody's business! :lol:

POST 6Original post

Yes sorry I forgot to add that if you're a 993 user then you will also require Boots cotton buds they are very absorbent and a bargain for a branded item :grin: I think some people get their cars underbody power washed for a reasonable fee at the indies. Can't remember where I saw it now

POST 7Original post

I just don't understand the question :?: :grin: TB

POST 9Original post

Just keep driving it once all the snow's thawed :grin:

POST 11Original post

Drive through a ford? You'll be asking about all those cleaning products next like; Vain-o, Autoglum, Scratch-it & Megwires :dont know: TB

POST 12Original post

Just use a pressure washer underneath the car - jack it up if you need better access :dont know:

POST 13Original post

i like to drive through a ford then drive onto a large bed of cotton wool... forwards and backwards a few times gets it all nice and dry, you can then change the cotton wool for a larger piece and wrap the whole car up. The car is then ready to store in my bed with me and the misses overnight. :thumbs: otherwise pressure washer seems to do the job.
