My 2IS pees in the garage after a bath!
Does your 2IS "urinate" after a wash? After I washed mine in the driveway, I drove it up a few feet, and parked it back in the garage. After a minute or two, I saw a lot of water on the floor underneath the engine bay! 
I think it was because I parked and washed it on an inclined driveway, the water got puddled up somewhere inside the plastic thing underneath the engine. And when I drove it back inside the level garage, the water got dumped back out onto the floor. Has anyone experienced anything like that? And no, I did not wash my engine nor open the hood up at all!

But interesting how you would open up the engine plastic after washing your car. lol.
