      For overpriced euro junk (Audi/BMW/Merc) is almost the perfect insurance scam. The write off is almost certain if it A) sits in water B) loses an unreliable and poorly engineered engine full of superfluous crap that has to be removed, pushing up the labour costs and writing it off.

    Take it slow, guys! It's surprising how many of the larger vehicles don't make it through simply because the drivers are going too fast. They have enough height clearance, but the excessive speed forces the water high enough to reach the intake

      ​@@Robert-iu4bxi can't tell you how to do it but if your speed is just right, the water in front of the car will be lower than normal. Same thing happens with boats when their speed is just right.
      What caused these engines to die is when the air intake of the engine sucks in water which in the best case stalls the engine. If you're very unlucky it can actually break parts of the engine so it's very dangerous

      Yep , can't believe they'd try it it most of those. A lot are petrol which can get water into the electrics and cut out (if they're lucky) some will hydraulic ( I suspect the audi did that) , that's a major , I have a high clearance 4wd diesel and even I'd take it slowly, there's no need to tear through like you're going to get stuck.

      Hydrolock is an abbreviation of the words hydrostatic lock.
      Hydraulic means something else, i.e. moved or operated by water.

      This is a centuries old historical river crossing. It would have only been used by a horse and cart. It was not built for cars. There is another way round by road which takes longer. People are either lazy or into much of a rush. If water is over 10cm or 4 inches deep, you risk destroying the engine. 1 foot of water can float a car.

    You would think in a country that has so much rain that drivers would be more savvy in how to cross a flooded causeway or not cross it .
    I once balked at crossing a fast moving flooded road but a guy behind me blasting his horn and going on like a lunatic rushed around me and was last seen floating away down the flooded creek . I just waved and yelled out bon voyage and turned around and went home and reported it . There was nothing else I could do . No mobile phones in those days . Later on the news I heard he drowned .
