Hey guys just want your opinion, the wife was driving to work this evening and was caught in the bad melbourne weather this evening and ended up being trapped in a big pool of flood water causing the car to stall and would not restart. Second later, water started to pour into the car up to the level of the base of the seat. Some guys helped to push the car out of the mess a few minutes later but car still wouldn't start. Waited for 2 hrs and after following the manual's instruction for flooding, the car started again and was driven home.
Problem now is, I don't want a flood affected car as it may cause problems down the track. So far the electricals work and the car drives alright but don't know how much damage has been done. Does anybody know if AAMI might give us a write off or will they just decide to go cheap and replace the carpets and give it a clean? Your opinions and experiences are much appreciated. |
