after flood checklist

[luloym]

there was a sudden downpour while i was on the road last weekend and soon enough the streets were flooded stalling cars. since i was driving a van (TD27), i was able to cross the waters and mighty proud of it (was able to bring my family home). problem now is, what do i need to check since i waded the flood no car dared cross? thanks for the inputs.

check your radiator for debris like leaves, plastic bags, barbque sticks. check the interior /carpets in case water found it's way in. check/clean brakes

I guess afrasay forgot to add the transmission oil. I'm sure you were playing with your clutch while the vehicle was submerged.

Bearing Repack?

i would do as follows will depends on how deep the water is.

1. check differential housing for water and clean brake pads
2. check transmission for water contaminants
3. check engine oil.
4. check starter motor.
5. check alternator.

I would just drive until something breaks then blame it on the water.

Check your air cleaner. Mababa ang intake ng Urvan. Baka contaminated na.
