the other night, i was on my way home. Was quite a nice drive watching all the lighting all over melbourne.
i was just near home, i was driving along and didnt realise the whole road ahead was flooded untill i wasd about 5m away from the start of the flooded road.
i hit the flood at about 40km, then i throught i may as well as try power through it. Then when i gave it a little water come rushing through the manual stick shift, pooring all into the passenger side floor, and my floor.
The car was absolutle ****n flooded. This happened 2 days ago now, ive had to strip the interior out to get the carpet out, because the underlay is soaked.
The vr had a 5spd manual put in it about 9 months ago from what the told i purchased it off told me.
The water poored up through the stick shift in the centre console.
I am now wondering, is there ment to be a metal plate covering the stick ? with the gear pattern in it ?
because there is just a rubber boot sitting there, doesnt even fit over the whole. i can literally see the gearbox and the ground.
can someone supply me with a picture of the parts im missing ? or the parts that wernt even installed onto the car ?
or is there just ment to be a bigger rubber boot to fit over the lip on the hole where the stick shift fits thorugh ?
thanks,
