Hi what model and year of the car
 
It's possible you have an EIS issue preventing your car from starting.
I would get in touch with these guys in Birmingham who can advise.

More than likely the cam sensors at the front of the engine are leaking oil which has gone up/down the loom and into the ECU.
If you get the ECU fixed and the wiring loom cleaned/replaced, the cam sensor magnets need replacing and extension pig tails fitted to stop any more oil entering the loom.

Hello there Alsim and welcome to the forum, nice to see you here, and I have to admit I am very much a newbie myself but already learning new things.

So sorry to hear about your motor, I hope the real problem is found, sorted and you get her up and running back to normal sooner rather than later.
