I've always let my 8 warm up before turning it off, even after having the M flash, and the dealer said flooding wouldn't be an issue. Sat. I had to get my truck out and I turned it off cold, and then later pulled it back into the driveway and turned it off cold. I thought I should let it warm up, but between the rain and the hearing it wouldn't be a problem, I turned it off cold. :o

Well, didn't go out yesterday, and this morning it wouldn't start. Tried the de-choking procedure per the driver's guide, but it wouldn't turn over. I pushed it out of the driveway so I could get my truck out from behind it and get to work. Called Roadside assistance, and they said they would have to tow it to the dealer. I figure it has to be flooded - so is there anything else I can do to get it started so they don't have to tow it? I hate the thought of having a new car towed.

They will likely flat bed the car, so don't worry on that issue.

Give it a day of rest if you can, then you can try the deflood procedure again.

Check your Batery cables. A couple days after I had service my car wouldn't start. I checked the cables and there were extremely loose. hope that helps.

Does the car turn over? If so, it could be flooding. If the car isn't turning over, it is something with the battery/starter.

Check the battery connect, that is good advice.
