I have a 51 plate Mondeo diesel estate which I drove through a bit of a flood yesterday. I went ludicrously slowly but the bow wave and weight of water seems to have ripped the mountings off the front of the engine undertray so as soon as I drive over 20mph the flap hangs down, scraping the floor in an attempt to imitate a blue whale hoovering up krill.
My local independent garage’s advice is “take it off and throw it away, it’s not needed”. But just before I embark on a long hot trip to Spain, does anybody have any experiences of this – good or bad?
