Hi CJ

[@tharinduwijayasena309]

its all about the technique. the Ford van at 4.00 mark does it perfectly. Turn off the AC, don't create a splash, maintain a slow and steady pace. Ideally in a lower gear like 1st and 2nd to keep the revs up; speed low.

That first one (The Discovery 3) far too fast and pretty clueless about water crossing. It will cost him more than a new front registration plate. He could have raised his suspension to off road height too. I bet he had engine problems following that splash down.

[@AlexBayes]

I noticed the plumes of black smoke as he left - suggesting combustion with a lack of oxygen?

[@dandare2586]

@@AlexBayes Yes that's what I thought, uncombusted diesel because it was mixed with water. I am sure the EGR & DPF systems would have loved that!!! His electrics would most likely have been damaged also. It's well documented on Disco 3 forums, getting water in the battery compartment is a nightmare, that amount is probably a sure bet for issues. I told the local car valets *not* to clean my Disco 3 engine bay but they did anyway & I got loads of warning lights on as a result.
