Default guess what you cant do with a 2007 350z

go through the puddle in home depot 1 and a half feet deep
then push it out and try to start it again
and then suck water into the exhaust
so i might be the first person to get a new HR motor
fresh start i guess =[

It was only chest deep to the ducks! Seriously, how do you know how deep a puddle is. No one expects or would knowingly drive through an 18" deep pothole.

18" deep pothole? More like a sinkhole.

yesterday right? No kidding. I come out of work after the rain and saw my car with water up the the bottom of the door! I shat myself. BUT, I dont know how or why and I thank heaven, the car started just fine and I drove out of 1 a foot and half of water. Albeit, I was soaked along with the carpet of the car but she is fine!! Im sorry to hear about your issue though. that sucks dude.
