6 inches to a foot? hmm...i guess if yours is ok then mine should be too, I've heard of under-the-engine splash guards, not sure if they're standard on all models but i guess ill find out tomorrow morning... I'm still gonna use this as an opportunity to do a full check on my car...if not w/ the dealer, I'll definitely do it on my own heh, after all thats the best way to learn

I went through some puddles (maybe around 5 inches) on my 96' Subaru Legacy (it was inevitable to get back to my parking lot)...it seemed to get through fine and I tried to drive slow in the puddles. I did notice that the brakes got a little weaker after I went through the puddle but I'm hoping that's due to the dampening and friction loss. So I came back to the parking lot successfully. I heard even if the car is running fine there could be potential problems in the aftermath...HELP, I'm really concerned about this, can anyone give me a detailed list of what needs to be done or checked at this point in case my car doesn't start tomorrow morning? I'm hoping it starts and I have good faith in subaru manufacturing line... Background: My subaru has 161k miles on it and has been well maintained since the past years. I am a striving car enthusiast and that is why I guess I am so worried about my car, any input from experts out there would be helpful...please help and thank you. let me know if u need anymore info.
