How did this happen? Did something rip off your oil pan?

Given current value of the car, a rebuild will cost about 50% or so, so budget about $25k. You sure your insurance or warranty won't cover this? Is this due to neglect?

I wouldn't trust anyone other than BMW to do the work, and usually dealership will just give you a complete swapped rebuilt engine from the factory.

I bought the car from the auction and some how the car had the oil sensor disconnected and it barely had oild so when we did a teat drive the car shut down and the motor got lock, i was told way less since part are under 10k for sure just wondering how many hrs and if its even worth it cus i used engine will run around 10-14k

I remember a recall issue with oil pumps on S63 motors, might want to check if this car was ever affected.
