My TL was flooded tonight. I had to go thru a 2 foot or so deep pool of water . I had water that gushed through the doors. While I had to cross this flood . I really had no choice but to go thru it since I was on the freeway and couldnt $hit about it. I couldnt back up so I am pretty much pissed. The floor is soaked and now smells like mildew. I am so glad I didnt lower the car yet ,otherwise I would be looking a pretty much a new car. The water would have flooded the engine and bye bye type s. I also think I damaged some mechaincal stuff under the hood. When I turn the car off I hear a stalling ringing sound. I also have a headlight that is all fogged up. I am so pissed right now I cant stand it. I just bought the car 2 weeks ago.

 

dang that sucks.... i bought the car like a week ago.. and im babying it


i hope it dries or something...

 

I suggest take it to a shop and have the carpets lifted up and the seats removed to let things dry inside. Go get some diagnostics done on your electrical systems at the dealer. Get a major service done (basically change fluids) in case water got into any of them. At least that's where I would personally start.

 

i would also do the same thing id have all the carpet removed and cleaned then take a hair dryer and dry off anything electrical thats inside the car that might have gotten wet

 

get those carpets out of there, you dont want rust building up on the floor boards.

 

dang that sux... you must lift the carpet and take the pads out or they WILL mildew. I would suggest that you buy new pads (very cheap)...then you will be ok on the smell.

 

while you have the rugs out .........if ur thinking about doing a system ........now is the time....lol

 

Oh no! Sorry to hear that dude! You just got your ride too. This really messed up. And why did the OEM headlights fogged up? Sorry man!

 

dont know what that's about ...but ill one up you...mines still at the dealer from last monday...i did ingest water ...interior had 4 inches of water inside for 2 days...so far the engine was supposed to be fine ...untill install of new plugs...a piston missing...now its ECU and ignition coils...we shall see...if it;s the block ...i have it set up to get the 3.5 upgrade...we shall see...good luck to you my friend

 

Man that sucks. My wife's integra was flooded a few years ago. I stripped the interior to wash the carpets. I found that there is a 1/8th inch black tar like sound deadening material stuck to the floor that holds water very well. It took about a week to dry that crap out, I left the carpet out and the doors open for a week and I'm not 100% sure it was completely dry. Oh well, it was a lease so fvck it.

 

LOL

 

What a dumbass.

 

Drop dead *****!!! I hope you get hit by a on coming car with your finger in your moms ass.
