Possibly damage from Lake like puddle
Discussion
Hi,
I was driving my 02 1.6 mini cooper on a busy roundabout last week and I could see the puddle in front but had no way to avoid (same goes for all the other cars around me unless we were to do an illegal turn) I went quite slow, matching the speed with the car infront until it got splashing on my windscreen blocking my view and I slowed right down.
A day before this happened I heard a small sound that could only be heard whilst in gear and after this puddle it now sounds like a gargling sound with loud rattling but again only when im in gear.
There are 4 bolts ontop of the engine and one is super loose but it doesn't seem to tighten? Just spins around aimlessly.. Im hoping that's the only issue with my car but I imagine ill get a right good mincing for leaving this problem for 6 days (only form of transport to work and pay day)
All help appreciated
Thank you
