Jag xtype engine failure
when you said stop suddenly,what exactly do you mean? There was not any warning light light on? or any strange sound? The engine does not turn on at all like a seized engine? if so check for any signs of engine oil level whether you do have any oil in the engine sump. if there is not any sign of oil then the engine seized. For the engine oil to disappear means that either you did many miles overdue to change or your engine was burning oil,without you notice it. Ask your mechanic to do his mechanical check.

I believe I know the sound that you're talking about. I'm not familiar with this particular auto, I would guess it's located on the side rear of the engine where it meets the transmission. To start the engine, the starter motor has to turn the flywheel, which is what joins the engine to the transmission. Doesn't matter if the engine is mounted front to back or traverse (side to side), look at the end of the engine. Keep in mind that it will look slightly different than the new one in the box, because the narrow part of it will be up into the cut out where it's mounted. Still having trouble finding it, get someone to start it while you're looking for it under the hood. Before you replace it, inspect the flywheel gear on the car along with the starter motor gear that you took off. Damage to the flywheel would also damage your new starter gear. Damage to the old starter gear only, I wouldn't worry about it. Its junk now that you replaced it.
Engine does not crank
Try testing your starter and see if you are getting power to it. If your starter went out you will not get a crank. When is the last time it drove?
