  1. Thing is that there is an oil level sensor there at the bottom of the pan. Measures oil level before the starter is engaged to start it on the first cycle of starting, then displays on the display oil level. With stop start the sensor only operates during initial start, disabled if the start is too fast. However it does not work well in operating engine, due to the oil splashing and foaming, or if there is glitter in there, though it also has oil contamination sensing (check oil for conductivity, conductive oil either is water condensed there, or very carboned up oil) built in. Likely is the owner ignored the oil level warnings, just got in and thrashed the cold engine, and also likely did not bother doing any servicing, leading to the oil being contaminated, and also being used up in blowby into the inlet. So drove it till the oil pressure warning came on, and the vehicle ECM refused to allow engine starting. Then turned off and saw the low oil warning, so dumped in a full 5 quarts of oil, which was still low, so added another 5 quarts of oil, as again no dipstick, but now oil level warning is off. Then proceeded to drive it, and as the knocking grew worse, figured that they are well under water with the likely cost of replacing the engine ( JLR not going to rebuild a engine doing the macarena at idle for sure), plus likely still owing around half the original purchase price, but now it is valued at scrap metal rate of 2c a kilo as mixed. So decided to instead slam on the anchors on the highway, and be given a love tap from the rear, in the hopes insurance will scrap the vehicle, settle the loan, and they come out owing nothing, and with still good credit score, or at least not any worse credit score. Hope they did not get that payout, and the driver that hit them was in possession of a dashcam, or that a witness got this on dashcam.
