well I'm SOL on that one it doesn't fit in my garage and I only towed it to my gfs parents house bc they were closer I'm gonna have to take my chances tonight and see if there is anything I can do with it in the morning.

thank you so much your help everyone and I'll keep you posted with the results of the dry out

 

Thats funny I've seen that video on you tube too, didn't know it was you spike.

 

I have driven in water that was apx. 32"s deep and never had a problem, but I was needing to cross a pond not see how big a splash I could make.
If you like making waves and running thru water really fast, just to look cool, you will pay for it.
By the way, if your filter got wet, your MAF is soon to fail.

 

HOLY...you sir are my newest hero. :clap:

To boldly go where wipers can't possibly clear the water on your windscreen is...wow just heroic. How much water got in the cabin btw?

Forget you Mike, that's impressive.

 

i appreciate the judgement for the sake of self glorification in that... and im not even going to justify it beyond that by stating my stance as someone who enjoys all forms of wheeling.

 

lol it wasn't so much heroic as just plain stupid fun. I only got maybe an inch or so in the cabin which seemed to have come in through the dash. it quickly ran out when i opened up the doors.

update: stopped by to check out the disco today. the oil looks good no water. it fired right up, but is running a bit off. I didn't put a filter back in bc i haven't had time to pick one up as i work 14 hours a day during the week, so im sure that was part of the problem. I got it in a garage and am going to turn the heat on all day tomorrow to help dry things out a bit better. Then sunday is my first real free day to take things apart and find the problem. I'll keep everyone updated.

and thanks again to everyone who has taken the time to help

 

Keep us posted.

 

ok the rover is back in action I dried the MAFS inside today and checked all the fluids... not a drop of water or milkiness to any of them. I ordered a new KN air filter to be picked up tomorrow, and put the now dry paper one back in. and fired it up and after a bit of smoke shes running like a top.

Thanks again for all the help! i'm one of the few people who can say they have had their land rovers in literally 5ft (i measured for bragging purposes) of water and are still driving it.

 

Don't use a K&N air filter it will ruin your MAF. Stick with a regular paper air filter, it actually filters the air better and has no oil.

 

ive run KN in 10 vehicles and 3 motorcycles and never once had an ounce of trouble. is this a Land Rover specific issue or something
