Every day for two weeks I drove 7 miles on a dirt road. Some of the dust made it's way to the engine compartment. I have vacuumed most of it, and used a damp cloth where applicable. I know a pressure water hose and even just low pressure water is not generally a good idea. What other options exist for those times where dirt has reached the compartment? No leaks, so no greese or oil accumulation.

honestly I had not even thought about it. I was at the dealer for my 30,000 mile. They normally open the hood while in the service area so that the staff can top off windshield fluid etc. I took the opportunity to clean out the pine needles that tend to accumulate near the wiper pivot points and below. The service guy tells me they can clean that up and steam clean the engine area for $20 and I responded immediately to add it to the list. They do not advertise it on their website.
My 25% discount saved me about $350 on this service (I had added in a front and rear differential fluid replacement -for severe driving conditions - Colorado) and new tires (I had more mileage to go on them but with 25% off I could not resist).
I guess they want that repeat service business. I did not even buy the vehicle there.
In contrast the finance guy did not offer me a good price on the gold plus, so I am still shopping around for that (8/120,000).
