I was driving on Interstate when suddenly my engine oil light came on and my motor reved up really high and the car shut off. I pulled over and added oil but its not cranking over, i hear the starter turning but i nothing is happening. The maintenance panel light had gearbox fault on for about a month and a half but ive still been driving it. Where do I start? Did I seize the motor.
