...not from accidents because of sliding, but because of extreme cold or harsh driving.
Like, it is -30 out, and the car wouldn't start, but you were determined to start it...so you revved/jumped/quick-started it just a bit too much, and BOOM!
Or, the car is stuck, and you are frustrated and determined to get it out, so you say 'darn it' and just floor it...and BOOM!
Couple of years ago, it's -29.5C on X-Mas morning, and I have a 10W-30 mix in my Tribute...never changed it for the winter, and I had to get going for visiting, and I was blocking everyone...two vehicles jumping it, 10+ minutes of cranking, and it fired, but knocked like crazy..I was mad and just started revving it hard...took a while until it stopped making noise, and it never did run right after that!
LOL, lets hear yours!
