Beginning:
I'll start with what happened first. Had someone do an oil change for me and about 2 weeks later while I was on the highway oil light was flashing while I was driving, and I pulled over to the nearest gas station and oil spewing under the car. Tried to get back home and car shut off immediately on the highway.
Present:
Towed it to a mechanic and showed me oil drain plug was missing and that's how I lost my oil. Drain plug has been replaced, along with a new oil filter again and oil and about 3 days later car shuts off again. Car will start, make a puttering screeching noise then stop immediately, oil light, battery light and engine light turned on, but no codes are found during the scan.
Is my engine shot or is there something else going on?
