I thought that one's the plug and one's the hole. I take it yours is missing the plug then?
Ye there missing
Id say thats too deep as well to be honest.
You really do need to be careful. A little bit of water will contaminate fluids at the very least.

that was just a ditch , it wasn't quite a deep as it looks.
its the angle of the approach.

Sort of. my brother in law takes his 300tdi defender deeper but always seems to have electrical problems for weeks after, and it stinks inside where the water gets in

I have a snorkel and axle breathers on mine and I try to stay out of the water as much as possible. When I first got it I tried it out several times crossing rivers etc. But not only do you have to keep a close watchful eye on your oil's other things get messed up. My Rear brake wheel cylinders had to be replaced. They were probably due to be replaced but going through water accelerated the need. You will find if anything is a bit iffy going through water will bring out the potential problem.

Don't forget your axle and gearbox breathers. If you've been bonnet deep it would be worth checking your tranny oils...
