Don't drive through deep puddles!
Saw a lot of dead cars on the road today. You should all know not to risk driving through a puddle that's over a 1/2 your wheel height, some not even a 1/4 of it, especially if your car has a lowered body.
Driving through water can damage: Engine intake systems. That's because Water in the intake system ultimately gets into the cylinders, in which the pistons compress air. Thing is, water doesn't compress, and the resulting pressure inside the engine can bend piston rods, crack the engine block and /will/ eventually corrode the inner workings of the engine. All are very bad and costly damage scenarios. These intake systems are usually behind the grill or in the wheel well hence the advice not to surf your car around in deep puddles.
So unless your vehicle is equipped with a snorkel, best not to try it.
