What are the effects of driving a sedan through deep water?
1 Answers
After driving through deep water, a sedan may experience electrical wire short circuits, poor contact, water ingress into the engine, and reduced lifespan. Insufficient engine power: After wading through water, if water enters the engine, it can cause issues such as insufficient power and shaking. Prolonged use under these conditions may lead to deformation or breakage of the piston connecting rod, ultimately damaging the engine, though significant disassembly is required for repairs. You can first check the air filter to see if there are any signs of water. Water entering the engine: The location of the air filter is considered the gateway to the engine; air entering through the intake port passes through the air filter before entering the engine. When a vehicle wades through water, water can also enter the engine through the intake port.
