Default Can there be water flooding my engine?!

The other day I was driving and over the radio that wasnt turned up to loud, i heard water sloshing in the engine bay from inside the car... Thought nothing of it cause it didnt happen again. Tonight getting off work start the car up first thing I hear, water slosh in engine bay without moving the car. Revs a couple throttle punches in nuetral while sitting there, heard the water again. Now my question is, the other day nissan has my car in the shop washing it off from oil spillover when they changed filter, I have a popcharger on it, could they have flooded my engine when they washed it (without) covering filter, then the test drive after they are done?! Cause it hasnt rained and it snowed but car stayed inside...

Please help me with any info. Also does anyone know the lemon laws for TEXAS???

lol if ur asking this question then there is no water in ur engine bay. unlike gasses, water isn't compressible (not much anyway). If a piston tried to compress it, u can imagine the amount of pressure inside the cylinder. Ur car would explode mwuaha. Or wont turn on at all. Ur fine.

I hear water sloshing like a washing machine when I first start my car. I think it's something with the coolant.

Check your coolant level. It's low.
