if you do, remove the snorkel top and put you hand over the air intake whilst the engine is running, and find where the air leak is, it'll make a hiss'ing sound

your engine could have slowed down because you were pushing a huge amount of water out of the way, and water is blinking heavy!

A cubic metre of pure water weighs 1 tonne. Think of the additional weight you have with dirty water. If the water is up to your bonnet you could easily be pushing several tonnes.
I always use low box when wading through water that comes above bumper level.
