oh fuck....... im scared right now.

ok can you share some more details?? kinda strange that your meth is fixed and all of a sudden this has happened??? i dont suppose its dumped a load of water/meth into the motor for any reason.... ??

not often we see the HG fail on these and we have plenty of high mileage units WITH boost still running....

Have you had lots of rain or run a huge puddle?? (wondering why you think its hydro-locked?)

anymore details on the variables would be great??? Whats your mileage now??
