BMW X5 can be repaired after water ingress. Methods for handling a flooded car: First, cut off the power supply to the car. If the car is submerged, turning on the power will burn out many components. Shift the car's gear directly to neutral. Do not forcibly start a waterlogged engine, as this can cause significant damage to the engine. Contact a 4S shop or a nearby car repair shop to arrange for a tow truck to take the car for repairs. Methods for dealing with water ingress in a car: Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to prevent short circuits in the car's electrical components due to water. Move the vehicle to a safe location. Check whether water has entered the engine cylinders. Inspect the condition of various fluid systems in the vehicle. Clean the fuse box, sensor connectors, and areas where water has accumulated in the car body.
