Default Well..my car got flooded in that storm @ the office parking lot. FVCKKKKK!

Made a claim, its going out to Sal's when the tow truck gets here.

The TCM/TCU electronics/wiring seem to be shot. Everything is in limp mode =(

Pool of water inside the cabin hopefully motor is okay. This ****ing blows.

Default Started it to move it out of the water, bc it was getting worse! In that 50 feet or so, LIMP mode

Then I sucked out all the water with a pump from the inside but damage was already done. Now its just sitting outside waiting for the truck.

How high was the water? You suck any into the airbox? Look inside it.
