Hi,
Tonight i drove through a deep puddle and my 206 lost almost all of its power, I have done some research and it seems its either the turbo or its in 'limp mode'
I have an ODB2 connector from my Astra i used to have, will this work as i have no idea what the protocol is and dont have any software anymore.
Any advice would be appreciated,
Thanks

Sounds more like its sucked water up
My 2001 isn't EOBD compliant, so I use my dealer software.

Water in the electrics if its not taken water into the engine like lee said but even a big puddle shouldn't get through the standard intake system. Or is yours after-market?
