    Loss of Power :-(

    I went through a lot of heavy rain last night and some deep water that was on a dual carriageway. Today when you put you foot down (not every time) there is restricted power and makes a sound a bit like a subaru if you know what I mean, sort of like a brrrrr sound If anyone knows what this might be please help. Thanks Gav.

    check injector clips and connectors also, and the ecu itself, it'll be water in a sensor or connector somewhere

    I think you might be on the money with this one.... I had oil in there before and it did the same thing. Cheers.
