2006 BMW 750Li Bad Oil Leak

2006 BMW 750Li Went out to do some running around and found that when I left the parking lot there was at least a 6 inch puddle round of oil. The car is continuing to leak even after shut off and has warned me to add a quart. All this happened out of nowhere. Trying to figure out what could cause such a massive leak so fast?

What are the recals on 2006 750li

Hi, I purchased a 2006, BMW 750li 7 months ago..this car has 71,000 miles and I hardly drove it since buying it.However, I noticed that fluids was leaking and to my a long story short, I took it the the BMW dealership-they changed the oil pan, but the reason for going was because it started showing transmission fault, and when I put the gear in drive it jumps back to park-on top of a very hard jerk when I put into drive to drive off. I ask the dealer to re set the fault control, but the car is doing the same thing..anyone has a solution to this problem? The said I need a transmission, and it will cost $7,700.00

Stop engine oil pressure light came on and stayed on while car drove for a while then the engine light came on when I stop at stop light. Started again drove another good distance then stop but engine not...

sounds like you just cost yourself a whole lot of money,When any german car says stop it means it.....by starting it up and running it for the second time,you did so with no oil in the engine,and guess what ......you now need a new engine.....as you have siezed that one.unless you can rebuild it,you are looking at around 6 to 7 thousand pounds sterling(ill let you work out how many dollars that is.......)OUCH
