Well, that really depends on what you bought .... an RAI or a Snorkel ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧

Seroiusly, my point to the chap was, many purchase an RAI thinking that solves all water ingress problems and they're free to wade at hearts content thinking they are safe but not realising that there are gaping holes in the rubber elbow.
Maybe it would be safer just staying put in his drive ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧

Im sure he will explain what happened to his last D3 - and maybe have the nerve to post a picture
if he wont, I will
if he had 1) walked the river bed first and 2) had an RAI - it may have just given him enough time to reverse out....Duncan

Ron, what i did was fit my Safari Snorkel which was totaly waterproof due to the design, after a while i was fed up with the snorkel part of it so i now fitted a RAI utilizing the safari internals Steve
