I'm starting a thread here. Most know by now I was victim to the Frog Hole at Rausch Creek. Went in, filled with water, pulled out. Died 15 mins later. Pulled out the interior so it could dry completely. Replaced the dead alternator. Getting a new battery tomorrow because that too is dead. I jumped it a few times and it would start each time but only run for a few seconds and then die. Throwing code P2119 for the throttle body. I cleared the code and didn't come back after trying it again. I will continue tomorrow with a new battery. Also get like a smoke smell from the exhaust or somewhere at least.

I knew it was deep. I did it twice before, but was much deeper this time. I just put in a new battery and it fired right up and is running now.

Bad news to report :went to move the X back into a parking space and none of the gears work. They worked this morning when I moved it. When I've tried to put it back in park the transmission just grind really bad I had to turn it off to put it in park. I noticed transmission fluid leaking from the front of the bellhousing. So now I don't know what is wrong with it.

Uodate: tried manually taking it out of 4lo. I somehow have all my gears again. No grinding. A tick coming from the bell housing. Will not come out of 4lo. I had somewhere to be so I will continue later.
