The problem with water damage hits you later. If you sort out the damage caused by the aqualocked engine, all will seem ok BUT water damage can cause oxidation of the electrics which will not be evident until on.
Slightly off topic but the same thing:-
My wife once dropped my canon digital down the bog, and it didnt like it to say the least.
Im lucky in that my mate repairs cameras for a living so off I went.
When I told him what had happened he said that he wouldnt even attampt to repair it as it would bite him in the **** later.
He showed me another camera that had water damage and even though it had been dried out the electrical contacts were completly corroded days after the event. Now anyy camera with water damage is instantly scrapped and they wont even bother to look at it, knowing what will happen later.
Now a camera isnt the same thing but imagine all those electrical connectors in the car than got submerged. At least when its starts playing up later you will know what the problem is.
Be cautious
