Replied by DrRobin on topic Blue is best.
I agree with all of the previous comments regarding driving through water, but I have done a few crossings in my Gen 4 over the last 2 years, all with a snorkel fitted and nearly all with the breather kit. A couple have been up to the headlights and I haven’t had any water ingress anywhere or any other issues.
I have done most in 4WD and the deeper/longer in 4WD-L, keep the clutch out all of the time, take it steady and make sure the revs don’t drop to avoid a stall.
This is Busk Lane near Stalling Busk (near Hawes, Yorkshire) last year, it’s quite a long lane and the depth is fairly even, although the flow/current is quite low.
