Engine washing precautions on a 220D?

I plan to pressure wash the engine compartment at the self serve car wash. I remember when I had a GM diesel the owners manual said not to wash the engine unless it was cold since water getting on a hot injection pump could cause it to crack. Any similar suggestion for this car? I rather not wait 2 hours at the car wash until the engine cools down.
