Ok so while out running errands during the tropical storm I ended up driving through High water. Everything seemed fine at first but now I'm running around 220* when I'm normally around 195*. And I seem to be loosing coolant. I noticed that the reservoir was low so I topped it off, drove to the hardware store and back and the reservoir was almost empty.
Also my air filter is a little wet in a few spots.

Running hot and losing coolant are pretty indicative of a cracked head or blown head gasket. Time to check the dipstick for muddy engine oil.

Cracked heads are pretty common on the 00-01 year models as you have the infamous 0331 head.

There are plenty of smart fellows here to better help you diagnose and repair.

X2 on the possibility of a cracked head. If u open ur engine oil cap sometimes u can see beads of water/coolant run between, i believe the 3rd and 4th cylinders (which was the most probable area for cracking on the 0331 heads). Thats a pretty good indicator which will lead to ur overheating and loss of coolant. And like NM-XJ said, theres way more smarter fellows on here to better help you diagnose!
