Damn Pine needles
In the cracks/crevices of my A6, everywhere... high winds and heavy rain last night... and I didn't have it in the garage... my bad. Any recomendations on how to get these out of all the crevices? I stood in the rain this morning, and hosed as much off as I could. I have most of them off, but I see some down in the hood hinge area that I can't reach.

A good vacuum. And while you're at it...
...be sure to remove the cowling cover at the rear of the engine compartmenet and vacuum in there (were the battery lives). Pine needles love to get in there and if you don't periodically clean it out, the drains in there get clogged. When that happens, water can overflow the HVAC filter and enter the passenger compartment, wreaking havoc with your electronics.
