Honda Civic, 2005, 4 cylinder, 26,000 miles... Ran perfectly until I drove under a flooded viaduct. An hour later, car shakes uncontrollably while idling or parked. I then turned off the car, shaking stopped, clicked it on so I could roll up the windows -- car shook again --- even while engine was off !! 10 hours later, I drive again. The engine thermostat is past "H" and the car shakes again... only worse. Please advise!! Thanks in advance.

Check out the fans up front for the A/C and the radiator. Might be a broken blade or something like that. Check the air filter to be sure no water is setting around and that the paper filter is dry. If it is not. Take it out and leave it. Drive to the parts store and replace it.

Thanks for the prompt reply. If the issue is as you have stated (and the solution is not expensive) I will absolutely donate.

If you are incorrect (and the solution is very expensive) I will cry.
