Lucky boy!
Perhaps I needs a little air intake sealing
Might need to fill the airbox to find the culprit

Pretty glad mate called me to kill her due to seeing exhaust steam.
Water right thru induction system.
We seem to have gotten away with it (once dried have driven 100km with no faults etc)
but bloody close to carnage

Lucky boy!
I'm not familiar with the 2.4. Are we looking inside the airbox without lid on? And no snorkel? Cheers
Vid is of scary side of intercooler
Disconnected hose at intake manifold
Airbox was apart and drying
Air filter wet but not destroyed amazingly
MAP and MAF both got cleaned with contact cleaner
Took a few minutes to clear intercooler of all water
Reckon at least 100mL got past the airbox and to intake
Snorkel insitu but clearly not 100% watertight

**** Steve!
That's scary, I think you've just won a minor lotto prize, that's a little too close for comfort.
Having recently had the fear I'd hydrauliced the TD5 in the Disco I think I know how you felt.
At least the chambers will be nice and clean now, they've been steam cleaned !![]()
Yeah I can tell you that the goldy went down very well
After I had cleared the water cleaned the sensors
And she was purring nicely
Nugget kit is a definite option

I assume the turbine impeller and Vanes have been steam cleaned?
My hope is water going thru the induction system was misted not a glut full
Air cleaner was visibly unharmed in processing so I'm guessing it filtered the water into a mist
Video would be showing the water that collected in bottom half of intercooler being burped out
System bone dry after 100km up to seisia
Hoping for the best
Thinking silastic sealing ducting and dump valve will do as good a job asnugget kit and means access to IC hoses and alternator not hampered by 90mm hose
