Has anyone cleaned their N55 engine bay?

I'm gonna use P21S Autowash and some brushes followed by chemical guys black on black.

I wanted to get an idea on what everyone is covering up (alternator, electrical, etc.)

In all the engine bays I've detailed I've never covered anything.

Just don't soak the engine bay and use common sense

Here's a guide I did a while ago...

It's not a N55 engine but it's the same principles.

OP, Please make sure you wash your N55 engine bay 55 times

Good idea!. That will probably give me an extra 55hp.

I'm going to wash and detail my 335i (N55) engine bay next week. Hope I don't mess up the electrical

Simply green is good stuff.

So, no need to cover alternator?

How do you get rid of the white spots on th emetal components like the engine oil filter housing?
