nope. unless you drive the car into a pond/lake/insert larger body of water here.

only if you have a CAI, and you drive through a big puddle and suck up water.

^^ for a 2.x model, dont know about 3.0

Like alex said, unless u drive into a pond or huge puddle you should be fine, the V2 doesn't even sit as low as a cai, you'll be fine
