Hi everyone

I had an interesting experience on Saturday. After a very wet drive from Inverness to Glasgow on Friday night (lots of surface water, spray, wind, deer, more deer, and a bit of rain+++!) I drove the Furby into Glasgow city centre. I had to negotiate a flood on Great Western Road, ironically outside the "Pond" Hotel. Most cars were getting through it fine in the right lane. As I was making my way through it an HGV came flying down the left lane and straight through the flood, throwing up a wall of water to the front of my car. We got through the flood fine and had no immediate problems.

However I turned into one of the multi storey car parks and put the car into full steering lock to get round one of the ramps. At which point the warning lights all lit up on the dashboard and the power steering failed, the remainder of the warning lights went back out except for the steering one. I got it up the ramp and onto the next floor when (albeit perhaps stupidly) tried the windows restart - you know, switch off and back on again (Mrs Scruffy thought it might help, it appears to have happened to her once before). Of course, on a restart, nothing at all, electrics all fine from the dashboard end but no turn over. So, we pushed it into a space (thanks to the very helpful chap who came to assist - and did so with a smile!) and called the AA.

The AA got it restarted and explained that the steering angle sensor was likely to have been inundated with water (as well as other contacts, all of which he dried out).

My question is really, should I get it checked out again, or will there have been no permanent damage? It seems to be running fine again.

Sounds like everything has dried out naturally now and with the help of the AA man, if all is well then I wouldn't bother doing anything else.
