2010 Tech 3.5 TL

about 2 months ago, I had gotten an engine swap with 40k miles since my old engine has a misfire and then had no compression on a cylinder. Once it was done it would run and drive good, just used a lot of gas because it had a emission light on and occasionally threw a bunch of codes like abs, t/c, esp, and clouster would stop working. About 6 weeks later it threw a code about needing oil so I added oil and then a few days later I accelerate weird exhaust noise a few mins later it starts knocking and shuts off. I don’t know if seized or it’s something else. Car had a new battery but when I try to start all it does is click once and turn off cluster lights and come back onVideo

Removed that other picture for you. Did the mechanic say anything about the emission light? If you are using a lot of fuel, it's either diluting the oil causing issues or being burned off and running the catalysts full of fuel which can cause issues too.

Thank you, and he had said it was about the car needing an O2 sensor and catalytic converter. But the car stopped running and just clicks now like in the video.

Most likely seized. Put your car in neutral or park, try to rotate engine's crank clockwise with a ratchet. If the engine is not rotating, you'll need new engine...

Thank you! I’ll have to do that when I home, but I’ll update after I do it
