Serious wading preparation?

Aloha all!!!

I'm busily preparing my 200TDi 90 for some serious wading. I've got all the raised breathers to run up into my raised intake but have hit a snag whilst sealing the intake pipework.

Just behind the outer wing skin, below the original intake, is a small rubber grommet, which I assume is intended to allow any water ingress to drain from the piping. Should I leave this in place or seal it? And what about the rubber draining grommet on the air filter box, seal that or leave it?

I'm assuming they should be sealed but want to be sure before I go ahead and do it.

Many thanks,

Chris

I'm not 100% but i would say seal them, Graham Wilkinson fitted one recently to his 200TDi so he may be able to help a little.

Thanks accywingy, got hold of Graham and have now sealed everything off!!! Time to get wet...

Hi,

I am new to this forum and off roading in general but I am also in the process of sealing my 300tdi for wading, I have a question for you. How did you seal up the battery & electrics compartments under the seats?
