Well! My car is not "In the Garage" but my WIP MDF Boards. I parked the car yesterday at the end of the street 20 meters away from the house. Around 4am this morning heavy rainfall drops. When I woke up in the morning & checked the car....... here it is.

"Flooded Car"

First thing I did is removed the battery terminal then pull-out the car computer box. Dried it using compress air.

Re: Car Interior Dismantling & Cleaning

I hope the car was just sent back to your home by pushing and no one tried to start the car while drenched.

I am hopeful to your ECU, the interiors can be revived anytime but not the ECU. Also, the A/C compressor is sealed but the alternator isn't. Hope the water didn't reached that too.

Good luck on your project!

Re: Car Interior Dismantling & Cleaning

Wow bro bryant, tsk tsk tsk tsk,so sorry about your car, such a big big hassle yan sa iyo, malaking abala tuloy sa pagka ka baha plus it might entail some expense and I hope not.

Anyway bro try na lang to think positively na hindi sya nabangga, or nasunog nor na carnap or whatever.

Re: Car Interior Dismantling & Cleaning

Bumabaha ng malalim sa pinaradahan ko pag umulan ng malakas, pero saglit lang wala na agad yun baha.

@ Jarod

The car started after I cleaning and air drying the ECU. Then ipinasok ko na sa garahe to dismantle the interiors. Hiindi inabot ang alternator hangang compressor lang.

@JayL
Half ng engine ang lubog hanggang ibabaw ng transmission. Buti hindi inabot yun dipstick ng ATF.

@Rosy
Hassle talaga. Sumingit tuloy sa schedule ko yun pag lilinis ng interior at maintenance ng oto.

Pag kaya ko DIY ako na lang gumagawa. Good thing I have a Factory Service Manual.

Re: Car Interior Dismantling & Cleaning

Sorry about your car, bryant. Pero OK na rin 'yan dahil tubig lang. Almost two years ago, putik ang ipinasok ni Ondoy sa kotse ko. 🙁
