I once had a headlight fill up with water and it made my car stall out. Whatever the path may have been it is fine now. Since your daughter also had the good common sense to turn the key off and wait a while before trying to start it. It typically does not subside until the car comes to a complete stop or it will disappear after just a few minutes of driving without further going through heavy rain/deeper water. Very good analyzation that the starter is low and was the path that the electrons sought to follow. Every so often during heavy rain or a splash through deep channel of water on highway, the most obnoxious squealing sound occurs. The water dries up and the electrical crcuit follows the path of least resistance through a copper wire and everything is fine. This left the starter with very little power to start the car.
If the car had enough water still in it or around it when she tried to start it, it actually grounded out into the water in every direction as it was the path of least resistance. If a short was bad enough, it would have blown a fuse. It is pretty well sealed, but if saturatesd, I could see it shorting out. Hope this dosen't turn into a few thousand dollar problem.The starter see a fair amount of water when driving through even smaller puddles and getting splashed. Took it back and they said they couldn't find anything. Well it was for a few months and it started again. Check tyres for adequate tread (and find out if you need winter tyres fitted) Check tyre. have your windshield wiper fluid upgraded to one which naturally aids your windshield in repelling water. Told me he tightened somehting up and it would be OK. For example, if you know in advance you will be driving in heavy rain, you can make sure to: have your windshield wipers replaced with new blades. Had the dealer check it out during a routine service.

When driving after a heavy rain drivers#
When the car drives thru the puddles in the worn spots on the road, the engine starts too act like the car is hydroplaningĪnd a banging noise is felt under the drivers seat. It goes without saying that wet weather driving can be dangerous, but studies show that while people tend to slow down and drive more carefully during a. I own a 2001 Toyoat Camry, and have the same problem with rain soaked highways. Just like when it get's wet, part of the exhaust system (a connector maybe) contracts from the cold water, then the heat expands it back again and quiets it down again. It does sound like an opening up of the exhaust somehow. However, this time after driving through the water, the car almost stalled and it seemed the car went into some sort of 'safe mode.' The car would not go over 2000rpm and the SEL and EML lights. I think a load has to be on the engine to notice the reduction of power. While it was quite a bit of water, I have driven through deeper puddles before in my MCS with no could not have been more than 5' at most. My 2000 Camry LE still does it whenever there's a lot of water on the road, like from a heavy rain.
