So... Sunday night one hours worth of rain rose up and filled my car up with enough water to fill up the center console and rise above the exhaust manifold in the engine bay....

I didn't attempt to turn it on because i want everything to dry out, I pulled all of the carpet and the seats.

There is no water in the oil, it is still black, I will change it before trying to crank it.

Outside of the ECU and airbag module, what else should i be looking out for?

Thanks

Omg. That’s insane. Sorry man!

Not sure if water can get into the tranny and tcase from the breather but that’s another thing to check.

Idk if this will help but pull all the connectors and use compressed air to get them dry. Disconnect the battery of course.

I’d also pull a lowest charge pipe just to make sure.
 
Your timing belt is going to be soaked, your full exhaust likely is full of water and needs pulled apart and drained, your spare tire area might be full of water, your abs module if you have abs will probably be soaked, your marker lights could be full of water, your fuel could have water in it, your inner doors are possibly full of water, your heater case and blower motor could be wet.
