I have gone through a large puddle of water at about 5/10 mph when i reached other side i had clouds of white smoke from exhaust and now no power, doesn't start at all but all lights on dash come on? any ideas please :)
oh dear. they dont take to kindly to this. seen it loads of times. basically if engine doesnt spin over when you try to start you need to remove air filter and glow plugs then spin over engine to remove water. then re try. but what usually happens is the con rods bend and valves bend. due to water trying to be compressed. timing could even have jumped. a compression test usually shows up engine damage. i would say most likely a new engine is required unless you are very lucky.
