I live in Lafayette and it's a like a mine field on the streets after every rain. This one must have been about 3x3 feet, and of course impossible to see because it is filled with water and mud. The car scraped the bottom of the street and knocked off the exterior temperature sensor, which now reads -40F. Later I found a wire dragging on the ground just in frort of the left front wheel. I assume the connector to the temperature sensor. The A/C now only blows warm air, because it thinks that it's -40 outside :( At least I am already going to the dealer tomorrow due to control arm problems *sigh* Damn New Orlenas roads! Lesson learned, never try to take a BMW off road.
