[QUOTE="alantiong, post: 711998, member: 19754"] edmund just confirmed that his car is a petrol version, which run on a AFM (air flow mass sensor). it is design to calculate air volume through the intake system. it also incorporate temp sensor also. these sensors will shut the fuel injection and ignition when water pass through as the density of fluid changes beyond the design parameters. thus protecting the engine from destroying itself. so very unlikely for the engine to have actually sucked water into itself. i have just looked at my own car ealier today, and i would think the water level will have to be completely cover the height of bumper before there is any chance of this to happen. i will advise edmund to try to hand turn the engine and see if turnover. if it does, then there is nothign wrong with the engine. if it has hydrolock, it will have seized.
