Engine stalling question

Hey so I was backing out of my drive way and half way I had to get out to move the trash can and apparently went to right and got stuck in the snow. So after many attempts and the car stalling with the slip light constantly coming on (I did hit the slip switch). After a few attempts and stalls the engine started to hesitate to start and once it did after a second attempt the engine was acting odd. It idled a bit high, and throttle was not too responsive, reving was really slow. And could only hit 5-6k rpm. So I restarted waited a few mins and it went back to normal. What happened? Is it anything to worry about besides the fact I stalled it a few time...(BTW how much harm did I do stalling it?) Cars a '13 6mt

Unless it repeats the symptoms, I wouldn't worry about it. It sounds like it got all confustulated with its bad self. Who knows, maybe with all the cold weather the electrons running back and forth between the DBW TB's and the ECU and the VDC system were shivering too much to stay on track.

For the record, unless you make a routine practice of it, stalling your car will not hurt it at all.
