Went through a ford which i never have problems with, except today. Water went ovwr the bonnet.
Eek
Didnt look that deep lol
That's always a scary moment! Well done for keeping your foot in it or you'd have flooded for certain!
Yes it would. It really didnt look that deep.
I really didnt want to go wading that deep because the spare tyre well has a hole :)
That's all right, the water can get out as well as in......
How's the BECM?
Dry as a very dry thing :)
I guess your door seals are OK then :)
When I did the Land Rover course at Soihull we took a Discovery along what they called the jungle track. Water up to the top of the headlights and you drove along it slowly keeping the bow wave travelling along in front and at the same speed as you. Half way along the dash started filling up with warning lights telling me that the alternator had died, all the doors were open and a couple of other spurious ones I wasn't sure of. As I drove out of the end of the track, I realised I had no power steering either but within 100 yards, all the warning lights had gone out and everything was back to as it should be. I was told that this was quite normal......

They are indeed. Also fixed by boot seal last year :)
Yeah, I had a bow wave and kept it in :)
Shat yourself, lift off, get stuck, cab fills with water, stranded on the ford with a turd floating about at chest height... Hello RAC lol.
So not lifting off brings new meaning to self cleansing velocity? :-)
Handy for when you get that sinking feeling ;)
As a rule I try not to go wading lol
