Hey there everyone, so I went driving in a very bad snow storm (I'm stupid) the weather was snowy and about -10C, I went to press on the breaks to slow down, I pushed down a bit too hard on the breaks, and it caused me to skid and do a 180 and skid off the road, I was NOT going fast at all, I just spun around doing about 45KPH, my car has no scratches, no dents, nothing is damaged, except my radiator, which I did not know at that time, So I continued to drive the car doing about 80kph for about 10km, I noticed my heat was not working but I didn't come to think of it at the time. The needle showing water tempature was still below the half make maybe 1/4 of the way up on the gauge. I went to go park my car and I noticed the engine was streaming a little bit, nothing too bad, just very little. I then realized I had no coolant/antifreeze. The car was not driven after that only started to repark but that took about 20 seconds, and one emergency drive which took literally 2 mins, and the engine was barely warm. So 4 months later I still have the car, It has NOT been driven just started a few times to recirculate the engine oil, the engine DOES NOT knock, rattle, there is no smoke coming out of my exhaust, the oil has no water in it, the car starts up like a new car. Did I get really lucky by not damaging anything since I have no signs of engine damage? Thank you.
