Is It Okay If the BMW 325Li Doesn't Stall When Wading Through Water?
1 Answers
Generally, as long as the engine doesn't stall, it should be fine, but water may enter the interior. It's best to go to a 4S shop for maintenance and inspection. Hazards of Wading Through Water: It can damage the electronic control systems inside the car. The mixed rainwater is highly corrosive and can affect electrical functions, especially future usage. If the car is submerged in water, never attempt to start or turn the engine, as this can cause severe deformation of the engine connecting rods. What to Do If the Vehicle Is Submerged: File an insurance claim. The first thing to do when encountering a submerged car is to report it to the insurance company. Even without specific wading coverage, you can still file a claim under the comprehensive damage insurance. For repairing a submerged car, replace all replaceable parts. Even then, rust and aging are likely to occur.
