About the symptoms of a water-damaged engine, the relevant introduction is as follows: 1. Engine oil condition: Normal engine oil colors include light yellow, brown, transparent colorless, etc., but it is generally not milky white. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, and then put it back in. If the engine has been water-damaged, a milky white mixture of oil and water will appear. 2. Air filter: There will be obvious water traces on the air filter and the lower housing of the air filter. There will also be clear signs of water passing through the intake pipe and intake manifold. You can disassemble and inspect the air filter yourself. 3. White smoke from the exhaust pipe: When there is water in the engine fuel or combustion chamber, the water is heated by the heat released during combustion in the cylinder and turns into water vapor, which is discharged from the exhaust pipe forming white smoke. After water enters the engine, the car will emit white smoke when started.
