just wanna be safe, today while driving out in the boonies i saw a sign that said water on road, i saw it and said why not downshifted na dflew into water higher than the door at well over 40mph, i came out with people in SUV's looking at me like WTF the car took it well but it felt like the clutch/tranny was slipping when i upshifted and im pretty sure i heard the engine sputter. got it home (no syptoms at this point) no codes, no water in teh snorkel, oil looked like its due for a change (still got about 500 miles before next change) otherwise everything felt solid, anything i should be worried about or an i just over reacting.

Why, did you enjoy it? Hope so, water is a bitch if it gets in the wrong places!

well, as stated in the previous post water can be a terrible thing if it gets in the wrong places, such as your air intake, etc. your clutch and brakes may be a little screwy for a little while but as long as your car starts and runs fine i see no major foreseeable problems...
