Is Water Ingress Stalling Serious for BMW?
1 Answers
Water ingress stalling is very serious for BMW. The lower intake position makes BMW engines highly susceptible to water ingestion during wading, hence it's no exaggeration to call BMW "the luxury car most afraid of water". Introduction to Wading Insurance: Wading insurance, also known as vehicle damage insurance or special engine loss insurance (terminology varies by insurer but the essence remains the same), is a newly derived insurance type referring to the additional coverage purchased by vehicle owners specifically for engine protection. Wading Insurance Claim Conditions: When the insured vehicle's exhaust pipe or intake pipe is submerged due to torrential rain/flooding, and the driver either continues operating the vehicle or attempts inertia starting; or when the vehicle is started without necessary post-flooding procedures.
