@@Adventures-pk8lg That's what i thought exactly. Water is only about 50cm. I was forced to drive in flooded street almost completely submerged the tire of my Haval H6. Went in the water slow at a consistent pace and the car came through without damage. I would bet on a Pajero over a Haval any time. The Haval's build and quality is good but it has too much electronics.
The reason you should not drive into deep water is because you can not see potential debries on the ground. Thats also why insurance will laugh in your face.
Even if you don't instantly damage your engine, water getting into all those modules causes a whole new world of pain when they start shorting out later from water infaltration.
That definitely happens, my wife drove our Vito through deep water in a storm in Cumbria and it survived, however the Aircon fans on the radiator were going berserk and wouldn't shut off, had to pull the fuse on them for a few weeks to stop them while it dried out, and the headlamps were full of moisture till I left the bulb holders open for a while on a sunny day to allow them to dry out.
that bit where the wheel kept pulsing when he was just idling was interesting. Traction control and/or modern automatic or DCS or CVT, all getting confused and fighting each other...
Noticed that as well. These Skoda’s can have an optional DCT (DSG). It’s trying to ‘crawl’ like a regular automatic transmission in D but then the traction control kicks in.
@@OH2023-cj9if Haha very true. Our company had an agency driver a few years ago who gave one of our Merc Luton’s a hair cut. 10’5” trying to get under a 9’ bridge. And guess the reason it happened? Sat nav 😂😂

That's the problem with those vans. You think because they're high they can easily go through high water, but the engine is usually very low inside the bonnet.
Crafter has intake between headlight, so when water reach vw logo in front, you are in trouble. i have a 4motion in my company,, thought seriously about accessory snorkel Because air filter is well behind and higher.
@@jaygo8442 y wife has a Kodiaq AWD its not really a full on 4x4 its really an AWD it has electronic diff Locks that are as useless, we got stuck in 5 inches of snow near Caithness at Christmas, the front wheels spun but the rears did nothing, FWD Kodiaq is fine if you just want to drive about on Normal roads with your Family or carry lots of kit , FWD SUVs make sense and they are less expensive to run than the heavier AWDs that guzzle fuel and don't really perform any where as good as fulltime 4x4s anyway. Not everyone needs or wants an AWD SUV. I would not have even attempted this in my Discovery sport which has a dedicated 4x4 set up
Hats off to the Blue Polo driver, someone that actually knew what they were doing, mostly! There was a bit in the middle when I thought they’d lost it.
I have a Pajero/Shogun and the air intake is at the level of the bonnet. Don't make a huge bow wave and it'll go fine. Drive like a dumbass and you'll hydrolock the engine!

@@pipandbenjieh. The reason Suv like Loldiyak and the like are popular is because they are station wagons that are easy to get in and out for ppl who lost the ability to properly move because they are lazy fucks.

If signs were put up that a recovery will cost you £100 plus just to get you out of the water i think people would think twice about going through........ and maybe not looking at what we see here time and time again.
Most of the idiots seem to think that driving through it fast will make it better. Then the bow wave floods the engine bay and "Game over". The guy pulling the box lorry out knows what he'd doing. Slow, progressive, gentle. Know where you air filter is! Mine is just beside the bonnet catch! I think a lot of them are there or up near the window wiper recess.
I wonder how many minutes it takes to avoid this by taking a detour. And I wonder how much money it will cost to keep the road dry by building it higher, and/or a small bridge.
It’s absolutely ridiculous what these people expect of their everyday runaround. To be fair, I’m on the whole usually impressed and surprised with the capabilities of the machinery.
A few contenders for the knobhead award in this video, but I'd give it to the Skoda Kodiaq driver. I mean, WTF??!! You wouldn't want him working on a building site, a nuclear power station or handling any dangerous substances 🤦.
Vielleicht ist die Idee ja richtig scheisse. Aber die Leute saufen ja ab weil der Motor über den Luftfilter wasser zieht. Könnte man demnach nicht einfach rückwärts fahren das es die Bugwelle am Kofferraum gibt?
The guy with the brand new Skoda......what an utter jockstrap.
To him it is a go anywhere 4x4 because it’s the size of one 😂😂
I know, what was he thinking? And how did that little SEAT do better than a shogun, a 50k Skoda and that big Nissan?
He is a moron
total prick ;
Also appeared to drive directly towards where there were people standing off the side of the road. Only his car said no...

The irony is he could easily have made it if he went much slower so that the bow wave didn't break, and he made the wave that wrecked his car......
