    Hopefully the motor isn't too badly affected and you are back on the tracks quick smart

    This incidend does go to show just how valuable fitting a decent snorkle to a 4WD that will only cost a few hundred dollars to get fitted can save not only your engine in deep water But your weekend as well

    With some luck just the intercooler will be blocked with water but the primary turbo could be damaged.

    Sorry to see this, but I think cranking is a good sign, not hydraulic-ed, hopefully the not starting is just wet electrics/sensors.
