Hi all, I will get a new battery - consider this issue closed. Many thanks to you!

I have an 06 s60, i tried to start it and it seems like its about to crank but doesn't. I checked the oil and it was bone dry, i put oil back in and had the battery charged still it tries but doesn't crank. It started to click when i tried to start it again. I did notice there was oil leaking yesterday it didn't seem like much. What can i do?

Measure the battery voltage after it rests for a day and report back. If it ran for more than a minute without oil it might be seized. Take out the plugs and see if you can turn it over by the crank pulley to sort that out
