Make sure that you check the drain holes under the wiper arms or you'll end up with this, which won't be good if it freezes (even worse if it was full & frozen):

I washed my car today and I had around 50 leaves under the bonnet in various nooks and crannies.
Oddly enough I don't park under trees at home or at work. They must be entering whilst driving.

Vacuumed out all the leaves from ours yesterday and I did notice how those holes right under the narrow gap around the bottom of the wiper splined shaft were already getting blocked up. I think it was a bad design nave to put them right where the narrower gap is, where debris is most likely to accumulate. I suspect it was just that this Ali happened to be the lowest point.
I was also quite surprised how feeble the clips are that hold the rear trim of the charge port housing on. As I pushed the vacuum crevice tool behind the back of the open charge lid (with the bonnet open), that rear trim just falls apart. Clips back together, but I don’t expect those clips to survive vey long.
