hi all, 

I'm back again to annoy you all...

I have just had a slight problem with my c250 deciding to throw its water out all over the floor. 

The temp went up to around 110 and was sat there for about 2 minutes. I then managed to pop some more water in and limp it home with the temp sticking at just over 80.. 

I have just got the car jacked up and noticed that the large bottom radiator hose below the turbo has split and this is where the water has leaked from. 

Now, I know this might be like asking how longs a piece of string but is there any chance I could of damaged the head gasket or rest of the engine with the temperature being that high for that period of time? 

Thanks
