my engine stalled while driving through a flooded street. I had to get out and push my car, which is lowered out of the water and into a driveway. I drove about 100 feet through the flood. I took it to a mechanic and he said the engines gone, and i need to replace it. He said that it costs 2800 to install a new engine..Im fucked, has anyone gone through the same experience as me? Has anyone ever gotten water in the engine through the oil filter, and got the engine to start again? I know little about cars and i dont know if the mechanic is trying to rip me off or not. Any input would be greatly appreciated, Thanks..
