Search for this. It's been discussed to death.

Personally, I spray mine with some Simple Green then drive it just outside my neighborhood to the power wash bay. That's just enough time to warm it up and loosen the grease. Then just make sure to get it all cleaned off, Simple Green on aluminum for any substantial amount of time can be corrosive.

Make sure to bring a set of ramps so you can drive the car up & get clearance. Any wear your worst work clothes...
