Mystery warning card in the trunk

[turbotaz]

Found this in the trunk on delivery. What in the world is this supposed to mean?

No car wash?

don't use tracked car washes.... but you should never use a car wash that uses brushes anyways...

Oh, interesting. My go to wash is a high volume hand wash but cars go through the line on a track. Never really had issues there, but I guess I should not risk it with this one. Probably the tire is just too wide for it.

Which wheels do you have? I'd think those tracks can handle wider tires/ wheels (trucks/ large SUV's...)

If you’ll go thru a car wash with a track it will destroy the front splitter. Carbon fiber or not

Now that makes sense... but the factory splitter on my 5 is actually higher than on my s6

Check and see if they offer “off track” washes. A little more $ but, worth it.

True. Probably it is the splitter then. That is where they have the star on the diagram. But it doesn't seem that low, so maybe overly cautious warning.

If you're driving through 2 tornados, be careful of wooden planks flying out and hitting the car on corner of the front bumper.

Do not drive toward sweaty springs, or your front end will asplode.
