thats really weird, maybe the shock of hitting the water knocked the control arm off its correct point causing it to not ba able to get into gear. was it a big jolt or was it jsut a smooth drive through a puddle?

do you have the metal peice that goes on at the bottom of the tranny and shuts off the space between the tranny and the block cause if not your clutch is soaking wet ?

i think the clutch is wet..but i donno, i was going probly 15mph casue it was rainning hard and it was down a hill and at the end of hte hill was flooded becasue all the water wasnt able to go down the sewers, so i went throgh the water pretty smothly, the only thing that fell of my car is my front lip...i ran ova it...grrr..and broke in like 5 peicese...but im not too worried about that just worriyed about getting in to gear, could water go throgh the inspection plate below the tranny?
