Just dont drive into a lake !!!
true avoid the lake lol

but if you go into a car wash with a underspray thing, theres enough to cause some long term damages. especially in the winter when water can freeze, and slushy engine oil is not cool. Plus, you can always tell if there is a problem if you take off your filter and peek inside the piping, you'll see some water in there. or if you try to vtec it right out of the car wash (like out on the road, not out of the car wash lol)

like i said before, the car wash won't hydrolock your car, but it can cause some water to get into your engine.
