After multiple requests, I re-visited the infamous Rufford ford to capture the scenes that happen there on a daily basis. Various RU-vidrs use it as their base to capture cars attempt a ford crossing, and on this particular day the ford was quite high, after a couple of days of a lot of rainfall. Resultantly, quite a few of the cars who carried even the smallest amount of speed died on the spot.

I think If you fully rev the engine the risk of a engine death is smaller. As long the engine keeps running the water just boils away. But to much water - > the RPM Drops until the engine is off.. The water is still in the engine cant boil because its to much to still have a flammable mixture and the engine dies due the water -> rust. Or?

@@Marcke-tb1hb airboxes have drains. They are NOT 100% sealed pre-filter. This is a design feature to allow things like…water to drain out. Notice how cars that creep then floor it suddenly ingest water even though they have already crossed? Idle/low rpm, the system will drain. You comment is absolutely false. The only way the motor will stall/hydrolock is if a large amount of water makes it past the throttle body and sits in the intake manifold waiting for the driver to floor it and ingest it. This is why low engine speed is key. It allows to air box to drain after crossing too. You can’t just floor it as soon as you cross. The rods are already bent. Remember, these clowns are flooring it. It is possible to hydrolock without bending anything.

I think I saw a snorkel pipe air intake sticking up above the windshield on one of the LR products. A Datsun 4 x 4 I used to own had vents on the transfer and final drive units attached to pipes that extended up high on the firewall and then turned down in a sort of gooseneck in an attempt to keep water out. Also even if the water level is lower than your airbox intake,wave action at certain speeds could cause water to splash up into the airbox and kill the engine. Possibly in some poorly designed cases hitting as little as a few inches of puddle at high speed like 70 mph or 90 km/hr could cause a fatal hydrolock by throwing water up into the airbox.

Thanks for posting. I've been waiting to see a WK Jeep like mine cross there forever. It's a rare vehicle there for sure so was a treat. To get to watch it tow that Audi with locked tires down the road was the cherry on top for sure. All the best to you and sorry to see that shoe soaker you got but that's what you get when you live on the edge!

Have been there, done that. In my local area I got taken in by someone successfully negotiating the other way and giving me reassurances. The flooded area was long and not totally visible from the starting point. In a 5 series BMW I set off and it was a lot deeper than I had given it credit for, a lot deeper. My headlights were under water and the level was nearing the glass at my shoulder. I thought the car would float never mind stop. I did negotiate the flooded area and my carpets were not even wet afterwards (well done BMW), a 4X4 stopped at the other end of the flood and said his was going to try until he saw me and then thought better of it. Not a situation I ever intend to get into again.

BMW, dry carpets, a working engine and water that deep doesn't add up. Cars are extremely buoyant when sealed. The full weight of your car and then some will have been completely displaced in less than 18 inches of water, that's true for even super heavy Teslas. Over the footprint of a 5 Series water that deep would probably weigh over 2'000kg, maybe even over 2'500kg, so you should definitely have been floating in water deeper than that where the body of the car is 12 inches below the water line. You saw the fiesta floating here at a shallower point in the ford to where the depth sign is measuring, so even with the wave peak it was probably barely 2 foot deep there. The intake of BMWs of most more recent models are all extremely low from what I understand and therefore would have been underwater even in standing water of a depth nearing door handles, nevermind the wave from pushing through. If you're recalling those details accurately, it was a miracle you got through and even more of a reason to not repeat it that you maybe even realise.

@@markwright3161 The headlights effectively going out because they were underwater, with water coming over the bonnet, and the water level approach the height of my drivers side window are vivid in my memory even now. As I said the car remained completely dry. The car floating was very much at the forefront of my mind and perhaps it did a some point though I was never conscious of that. Something I left out was there was a turn in my route that prevented me to see my exit on entering the water and on that turn was a farm gate in the Cornish hedgerow. That was the source of the water and it was flowing through there like a river, and I mean by that it had flow and it had depth, that frightened the life out of me realising I would need to pass by it. The possibility to stop, or go back given the depth I was encountering at that moment, did not seem open to me.
@markwright3161
@markwright3161 Год назад
@@Roskellan The weight of water on the bonnet could have reduced the buoyancy, but I didn't imagine it was possible for a BMW to make it through water that deep. You had to have someone looking out for you or something, whatever saying fits your beliefs, because flowing water as well is almost always fatal for the vehicle and sometimes also its occupants. I'll stick by calling it a miracle myself. :)

Why would you WANT to subject your own car to that abuse ? These motorists seem to have no mechanical sympathy and even the 4wd and land rover owners if they bothered to look in their owners manuals may find a paragraph which recommends having the fluid replaced in the axels and drive units after traversing deep water.

I must say it's interesting how fragile engines can be. These cars are largely breaking down due to becoming hydrolocked (i.e. the pistons can't move against the weight of the water in the cylinders - and sometimes the rods bend hence the knocking) or the water pushing the radiator in. I've seen a lot of these clips and in many cases the electrics survive and you can still use the lights and infotainment.
@slipperyfish7560
@slipperyfish7560 Год назад
Nothing to do with the weight of the water, the pistons are trying to compress the water but unlike air it does not compress
@identitymatrix
@identitymatrix Год назад
Water is an imcompressible fluid, this is why pistons will break. But the rods can break and bend anyways, so you're partially correct.

a 1000hp build monster engine will bend a rod or crack a piston when it gets hydrolocked mate you are filling the cylinders with incomprehensible liquid than you have the piston slamming into that with a lot of inertia behind it no way any engine survives that

The idea is to approach slow to avoid water getting through the top part of the grill where the air is sucked in to the engine, going too fast will cause water to splash and get sucked in which will flood the engine

Some cars have it incredibly low, my old 1990 Celica had intake piping go to the bottom of the bumper. Almost had her die in a flooded street once. She did start after a while and was fine tho. Its was mostly becuase of a moron making a wave from opposite side tho.
@akostadinov
@akostadinov 6 месяцев назад
Also you can see most drivers splashing the water hard, which depending on air intake position can choke even a high car. It is also important to drive on low gear with high revs. Otherwise exhaust gets clogged. Additionally automatic transmissions and 4x4 electronic hubs need oil change after being submerged in water. A lot of things to consider.
