2007 335xi lost oil and shut down while going about 45mph. Oil was on ground towards front of engine. After having car towed to a garage I got underneath and found small amount of oil on ps lines in front and a small amount under the crank pulley on the belt. Display says the oil level is ok and afte trying to start the starter turns but does not engage the flywheel. Thorough inspection of the turbos and I cant find evidence that one of them went but for the life of me I can't find a leak. My thoughts are to clean everything, verify oil level then run it to find oil leak. Any ideas why the starter will not engage the flywheel?
