My dad was buying repairing then selling flood cars from hurricane katrina, and you just need to change the oil a few times, fill it, run it, drain it... even after it looks good, go for a drive t get the revs up a little, then drain it again. he did about 10 of these cars and every one that he fixed is still going. None had a supercharger so i dont know what the deal is on that... maybe get a new one to be safe? Good luck though man, sorry to hear about your luck.

I feel your pain. Luckily mine just dried itself out and there was no water in the fluids. There was about 4" of water in my floorboards and at its highest point, the water outside my car was up to the GM emblem. All because some dipshit forgot to open the dam to let the little decorative creek flow into the big ass lake next to the hotel I was staying at

Now i have to deal with the tow truck guy to fix my body kit. That ****** at least he owned up to it said he was going to pay for it out of his pocket called me yesterday.

So you're still driving it? Yikes, I hope they got all the smell out of it. I thought in most states they automatically go ahead and total it if the water reaches a certain height? Yours is up to the roof.

It was totalled and i bought it back and fixed it. It has NO smell and a few of the indy guys on here can vouch for me on that..lol.. I started tearing it apart 2 days later.. the mildew/mold didn't have time to grow .. I ended up with the car paid off and fixed out of the insurance settlement.. I figured I would risk having a few problems out of it when I came out of the deal with no car payment.. so far, no issues at all

What the hell possesses you people to drive through puddles that deep? Obviously the one with the red car and the sedan is un-avoidable, but jesus christ... If it's up to your DOORS why the **** are you still driving?!

well their was a toyota corrolla in front of me that made it i figured i could too. monkey see monkey do

chris88z24

Guess it's probably different down there than it is here too...we don't get floods and the roads are never flooded where I am from. I've only driven through deep water once when a water main break happened on the road to my work. It was across 2 lanes of the road... I got a running start, clutched in and idled through about a foot or so of running water. That was quite scary... lol

yea today it was flooding bad again today it was kinda scary a bunch of car got towed today i learned my lesson though

Nal

or a sink hole. didn't someone just focked their car like a week ago doing something similar? , does anybody have one of those intake adapter tha breaks the siphoning if the filter happens to get flooded, if so do they work?, any pros/cons?

Murdered SS

its called a bypass valve, you can get them from aem, only thing is you gotta measure the size of the piping and hope that they have the diameter...

i used to sell them when i worked for a shop, popular with honda CAI...
