Thank you! My wife would never drive across a road buried by water intentionally. Her visibility was poor due to streetlights being off (lightning), and the downpour. Trust me- she wouldn't jeopardize her beamer or do something to cause us to have to pay $$ for repairs. I believe it was 12" of standing water, but she hit it at about 20 mph-again not suspecting the road she drive every week was now pitch black and flooded, and unable to seethe impending water problem.
Just had the computer checked- because the check engine light came on, and some light sputtering. I assumed a misfire based on what it was doing. Scanner confirmed cylinders 4,5,6 misfire.
..and yes- the GOOD LORD was thanked the whole time!
