Unfortunate intake placement - you'd have thought Nissan had changed that by now.

The car needs to be looked at by a mechanic. The intercooler could be full of water, there could be injector damage, turbocharger damage - there might only be the water, it could require a rebuild, but until it's checked you won't know.

It's because the air intake sits too close to the left inner guard and large splashes can be directed into the intake. Snorkels prevent it from happening but I do think Nissan could have thought about it a lot better.

Good luck with it!

You would have damaged the rings at best probably the piston lands as well. Sorry to say but you're up for a rebuild.

Insurance claim a possibility? Worth investigating if it is bad news.

How deep was the water crossing mate? I'd get it looked at by a mechanic and then work out a cost to fix or insurance claim.. What ever is cheaper or easier..
