Last week we had the Nor' easter here in NY. My 2003 Aerio sx awd stalled while driving to a puddle. I did not realize how deep the puddle was. The car would not start. About 5 minutes later I pushed it out of the puddle. The puddle was about 20 inch deep. Since it was 11:30PM I left the car and came back in the AM.I removed the spark plugs and started the car, water came out. I put back the plugs. It took about 3 minutes to get the to start. Water was coming out of the tailpipe.
I drove it home but when I get to around 40MPH it was reving high. it does not go to the next gear. Also the "air bag" and the "service engine lights" are lit. I changed oil twice already and changed spark plugs.
Is the sensor damage? Help!

TIA

[sm=noooo.gif] sounds like your screwed!

 

If they have AutoZone store in New York, take it there and have them read the code(s) from the computer. I had that done just the other day, and they read it for free and then gave me a printout of the issues, which allowed me to fix them without guessing what to do. If no AutoZone, surely one of their competitors will do the same thing for you.

 

I did go to autozone. The two sensors need to be replaced. I took it to the dealer. My insurance paid for everything minus deductable. The car is running fine now. Thanks for the response.
