[QUOTE="Top_Speed1, post: 1174772, member: 28614"] Going into water, the theory is that you have a warm (or hot) rear-drive, this action sucks the cool water into the breather. Results will be the milky rear oil/fluids. Not saying you were nearly as "submerged" as me but... After I went jet skiing (my avatar pic as well) I immediately changed my drive oil. Twice actually, once immediately and also within 50 miles. After draining the rear, I put the fluid in a clear mason jar and let it settle to see if I had any separation. None luckily, but I was still glad I did the change out.
