Shifted the gear left to stepstronic mode accidently when parking. Then spent the entire evening trying to figure out why I can't put the car in R and reverse out of my parking spot.

Black Out
Parked the car at the DMV, shut it off got out and locked it. Then it proceeded to slowly roll forward in the parking lot. I jumped in and put on the ebreak, no damage.

Drove it in a huge puddle. Don't ask me why I did it. 
Water went past the grill. 
Car stalled. Thought I had to get out and push. Cranked it and it started. Drove out of there and the car was idling weird. As for the other 2 cars next to me. Well they're weren't so lucky. Revved it a couple times to see if all the water got out. Drove it to my cousin's house going 20mph. Shut it off and start it back up. Everything was fine.
Surprised it didn't hydrolock. I think the thing that saved the car is the "Dinan-like mod". My guess is since I had two intake tubes, the car couldn't get full suction.
