Reply With Quotewhere the hell did u get in 13 inches of water?
Since there are no problems yet, I'm not going to post this in the problem reports. I had a chance to look over the aftermath from last night and my estimation of the water level was almost dead on. I guess 12 inches of water, and I measured a 13 inch sediment line on my bumper at the highest point, and 11 inches at the lowest point (up front where the water had a chance to wash off when I plowed forward). This means that water for sure went into my exhaust...no wonder I had a really funny sounding (both humorous and weird funny) exhaust note. The engine compartment is completely untouched on the surface, but my radiator has all kinds of junk. On the bright side the dead mouse that was up there got washed away (I refused to touch that thing). The water also seems to have wiped out any kind of lubrication my car had, as it squeaks and squeals like there's no tomorrow. But the brakes no longer make noisesIs there anything else I should be looking over? Any potential problems I should be expecting or be aware of?

Peter...
If your exaust is sounding funny then the cat is shot. It is holding water. I had the same thing happen to my 535IS. Try to not drive the car because the water will throw your o2's into chaos, and maybe make you run real rich... try to get a new on put on asap (high flow cat? you can get them for $80)
Well I already drove about 30 miles today so it's too late to take your suggestion (

Heh it somehow ended up a while back on the front of my radiator, right behind my driver side grille. I have no idea how the hell it got up there, why it died, and how the *&@^%@ the corpse managed to stay stuck.
