Is/are there any issue(s) regarding the high velocity of air (full power) forcing water inside the car (passenger/engine compartments or trunk)?

I have seen no evidence of that after about 50 washes using the Metro. Typically blows the water from the crevices.

I get a little water that will enter and run down the windows in my c5 corvette but it is not a really a problem. Not a problem at all on more modern cars.

I have not experienced this in the six months that I have been using the blower.

Not that I've found. I angle the nozzle to blow along the lines of the car. Most compartments are protected from rain water, I just wouldn't blow air when doors/windows are open.

I think you're asking "will the motor get ample air flow..." - I highly doubt it. This is a weather cover, not a cover intended for use while running.

Yes and no. If you want to force all of the water output through the airline tubing then I found no way to do it unfortunately. I wanted to use it as an ATO but had to give up on that idea.

I installed the unit in a vehicle I don't believe that it was ment for water,these units are installed inside vehicles not outside and if you look at the description (White Car Interior) that say it all.

The only way I ever saw any water coming in was when I sprayed a pressure washer essentially directly at it, and then also by slopping an entire bucket of soapy water sideways at it. Otherwise, highway speeds in a heavy down pour did not phase it.

Ur going to make a really big mess of the filter and inside, but I sucked a lot of automotive fluids up just not huge amounts at a time and it seems to do ok. There might be something out there more directly suited to that specific task though.

It's not quite that simple. There is also a drain in the lower part of the block to help remove all of the old, as well as any water left from the flushing. Also, an air bleed cock high is up on most of the engine cylinder heads that must be opened to assure that no air is trapped. This is important, as trapped air can cause overheating. By the Chilton or Honda shop manual----well worth the cost and lets you do far more than change coolant.

Well, I would recommend to look into your owner's manual too. There is a section on the cabin filter. FYI the air flow is top to bottom.

Agree with the first response - when the engine has to furnish power for a larger electrical load, it will necessarily have to work harder, and somewhat louder. This applies for Normal operation.

Not a problem on my 97 explorer v8. 5.0 liter. It has started every time from a dead battery as the vehicle sits most of the time.hope this answer helps

Yes and No. Although you can make pressure changes by throttling down the engine, its best to use the nozzle designed for washing and don't hold it so close to your car. If washing cars.(not semis) is your primary use, I'd by something in the 2000 psi range to save your paint job if you get to close.

I own mine for a couple of months now.i ran mine on almost any terrain and nothin went wrong with it.and everytime im done playing with it i use old toothbrush and all purpose foam cleaner.and when the car's dirt are loose and its cover in suds i shoot with water hose.im directly shooting at the ESC and motor and mine always run smooth and look mint.so about the water proof ability of the car i think its pretty good.and about the warranty coverage if the waterproofing fails our only way to find out is by calling horizon hobby or vaterra. tip:when washing car remove wheels from car as the water can go inside and absorbed by the foam tire insert.wheels will be heavy and rob u power.

I am using the one that came with it. Entire vehicle has been exposed to water, with no negative consequences. Hope that answers your question.

So far an excellent performer for my cars......it screws on the the neck versus locking down and flipping a tab which causes air to escape. Quite quiet compared to others I have bought. Now does it go as high as 80 psi.....I have gone as high as 60 psi and it continually fills at not a bad rate. I love this small, compact, reasonably quiet, just does it job device. I am very satisfied. Search on-line for specifics on a particular product.

I would considered addressing the issue with you dealership, because if you have airbags built within the seats, it my cause problems. Just consider the matter!

No. I would be awfully messy using in a car. Where would the water go? On the seat? The floor?
