[QUOTE="fabianyee, post: 653774, member: 6"] Dun play play with floodwater. I often see car driving faster than they shud... I would wait till the car in front clear the stretch first, so I can see how deep is the water or any sign of potholes... And also to let the wave settle before driving slowly in 1st gear all the way thru. Don't change gear, cos if the water is higher than the exhaust tail pipe, water would get sucked in. and also the faster the car move forward, the higher the water goes up the front. Imagine a bulldozer pushing a pile of earth. In the threadstarter's case, sounds like water got into the engine causing internal damage. [/QUOTE]
