I put my suspension up and went really slow. My X5 is 100% fine since. If you got water in your intake it would have stalled immediately. You definately didnt get any water in the engine. It would have been immediate problems.
Also some here said to check tranny and diff fluids because they are not water proof. Although I may be wrong on this. It doesnt seem to make sense to me. If its not sealed and cant keep water out than how the hell does it keep the fluid from leaking out. Can someone explain how a seal can keep fluid from coming out but cant keep it from coming in.

Totally agree! Since the video tuner and radio tuner are located in lower trunk (below the spare wheel), so they may be damaged. They cost about $2000 to replace them with news. Others should be absolutely fine.
