Wadding depth 991.2
I live in Oklahoma and am subject to flash floods. What is the recommended max wadding depth of the 991.2 ?? |
Porsches are so light and tight I think you will float away before you exceed the water depth at which components become damaged. Is this a serious question? |

It seems like you mean water depth. Don't do it. Get a beater small pickup or Jeep for use in rainy weather. Depreciation of your 991.2 will be lower with fewer miles, and you'll need to do a lot less cleaning. . No use driving a 911 in lousy weather. Save it for when the good times roll and you'll enjoy it more. That's my advice.

Do you mean wading? Strange way to describe it.

None, it’s not a Range Rover. Curious on why you would drive a sports car through flooded streets? |

Just ask for Oklahoma spec RAL as well as FAL and you’re good to go!

Sorry, J**2. Us Rennlisters can be critical jerks.
Having said that, wadding will depend on what gauge cannon bore you use to launch your 991 over the flooded section. |
Oh come on
I appreciate the sarcasm but respectfully ask again. look I can’t move and Oklahoma has flash floods you can’t predict these things. If things are flooded yes I’ll drive my Ford F-250 but you can easily get caught in a downpour here i obviously don’t want to hydrolock my engine ive seen videos of rally 911s splashing through water what is the max depth of water a base 991.2 can navigate safely? This is defined as the wading depth. |
2-3" is my guess. At slow speeds. I live in TX where we have similar flash floods. I find them easy to avoid.

The intakes are up on top the engine, the exhausts are about 8-9 inches up. Electrical all higher than that.
I wouldnt drive through water more than 5 inches high, which reaches the bottom of the car. In an emergency, you could probably drive through water 18 inches high ( quickly), but you might get water in the fruck and interior and water would start to enter the exhaust. |
Ya, the stuff that will die of water is so high and so far back, it is basically whether you can drive through without flooding the interior or floating away. Maybe there is some sensor that could be damaged under the car, but I sort of doubt it. |
