GVGT....Toyota Wish good for driving in flood.....

[Mockngbrd]

Of course not my own car lah....But as long as you floor the accelerator to maintain exhaust pressure water dun get suck in then ok. The Beemer maybe want to reverse then release the accelerator then water get suck in the cylinder then gg liao...lol

the water up the exhaust is a myth. There is no way water can be 'sucked' up the exhaust. As long as your engine is running, it is contantly pushing gases out, even on idling. The cats might get damaged tho and those are expensive to replace. Up into the intake tho is an entirely different story, bye bye engine.

New trend nowadays for sport cars, no more CAI, now they install top mount intake (snorkle) on sedan and sports car.

Would 17inch or 18" wheels make a difference?

Nope. The overall tire size does not change.

[Mustank]

solution would be to jack up suspension and fix snorker

Up to headlight means the lower door seal is submerge in water?

Ya lower door is below water. But only for a while so no water seep in. My cab only 5 month old so the seal still good I guess.

[Hammerhammer]

Just curious, your cab is the red one?

 

Ya red one.

[Heartbreakid]

Then how about this? A Proton Iswara crossing flood at bonnet level, first gear fully floored. In the video, it sounds more like a motor boat than a car. Hahaha. Surprised that the engine didn't hydro-locked.

[Acieed]

Probably air intake not kenna yet, and it's a manual car. Likely the electricals and alternator gone liao. If its an auto car, it will stall.

[Hammerhammer]

Your WISH came through the flood.

 

I guess it may be gut feeling for you to decide that you can go through, or no need to think, just go drive through.

 

No lah I din expect it to be so deep. Cos poor visibility. And Kings Road I din heard got flooding before. Bt Timah flooding is Eng Neo Ave onwards to Blackmore that side always flood.
