Coolant Smoke Help!!
Tonight i was going to the store,decided to do a little pull from 1st to 2nd.Well after that pull i noticed smoke behind the car.Not thick smoke(could not tell waht color cause dark out) but enough to notice there is aproblem.I was only about 1 mile from the house and noticed when i stopped smoke was coming from the passenger side wheelwell also.Pull up to the house popped the hood and smoke everywhere! After it clleared i lokk around and noticed the after coolant sensor completely out of the socket.The clamp holding it broke.Well i checked the oil and coolant to make sure they are not mixing(headgasket)and they were not.My question is:can this event have damaged my turbos also do you think this could have blown my headgasket? I'm pretty paranoid and ocd about it. Also wheni pick up the new clamp can i just add coolant that i lost?Thanks guys.

Where was it leaking from exactly?
I wouldn't think your turbos would be damaged after such a short stint and a head gasket is unlikely, especially if you checked the oil and there are no external leaks.
