Awful waste of a Disco 4
Just saw this on youtube.
How stupid, actually watching/filming the water enter the air intake!
Disco 3: Lotus Elise S1: Ferguson T20: Audi A2

Did it start in the end? Vid seemed to cut out just at that point. Plus 2.7 D4? It had a dipstick.

not entirely sure what happened in this case but suspect they either had a door seal or floor plug missing to let that water in

RAI wouldn't do anything ....the cabin is sealed by door seals and the bulkhead and spare wheel winch grommets ....maybe nuts enough to have opened a door ?
