Hey all - I just picked up a nice e92 328 coupe with low miles and a good bit of time left on the warranty (CPO). My last BMW was an E46 'vert that was just a blast, but that was 10 years and a couple degrees ago... now with school paid off, time to take the plunge again. SO glad i did...these cars are just awesome!
I'll be keeping this one a good long time and have started the detailing process with the engine compartment. It was relatively clean, however it seems to have a fairly thick film of oil residue everywhere. I used a bit of simple green, but that really didn't cut it and resorted to hot soapy water which did a bit better.
Would any of the available engine cleaners from Chemical Guys or AutoGeek work any better on the engine compartment?
Thanks much!
Well I think I found an answer to my question:

I would still welcome opinions on specific products though - cheers!
