honitonhobbit Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 (edited) You still haven't fitted that snorkel... Then you remember you didn't slide the vents to recirculate Then you realise that if you had been practising what you preach, there was a shallower route Thank God it's a 200 so none of the super absorbent sound proofing Sorry they aren't in order Edited December 7, 2016 by honitonhobbit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honitonhobbit Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 I've avoided fitting the snorkel because I don't do deep water in the Disco. It's a general family hack, training vehicle and tow barge. I really hate drying damp carpets. But I wasn't concentrating. As tail gunner on the greenlane run, I had held back so I could take me five year old for a 'wild wee'. So I hadn't seen the P38 in our group take a different line. I followed the last but one vehicle in - not thinking about his 5 inch lift and 35" tyres - watching the water level on his vehicle. Interestingly, there was no ingress into the induction side - dry as a bone - bearing in mind the air is taken form between the wings, I was quite pleased. The engine bay stayed relatively dry thanks to the bow wave and brief dip. I'm due to service the winch at Christmas anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boydie Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 I bet you didn't stop to fit the wading plugs either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honitonhobbit Posted December 9, 2016 Author Share Posted December 9, 2016 I leave the wading plugs in all the time - take them out for a check every couple of weeks or so 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
