KV6 Water in Engine - Help!
So we had some bad weather and due to my daily car having to be leant to a family member I had to take the ZS to work. I got stuck on a small road which had water running across, It wasnt all that deep, i was slowly (1st gear) going through it and it was up to the lip on the front bumper, then all of a sudden the car died about half way across (15 metres in approx). a quick check shows that the air filter has sucked water up, the engine wont even tick over now. have checked spark plugs and they seem fine but there is water at end of dipstick. So has anyone had this problem and what should i do/check now? I am half expecting to need to change engines but thought id ask before giving up all hope. I am thinking if i had put an aftermarket pod filter on i wouldnt of had this problem!
Any advice would be great!
