my max :( :( :(
3 days ago i was on the way to my friend's place... i was goin on a really nice road....with sharp turns and all that... anyway... i was goin like 50km/h (on D)....so i decided to downshift to 1 to take that turn niceley .. :finger: ... 2 seconds after that i heard some reallly fucked up noise from the engine...
 .... so i got home ..opened the hood.... and i found out that there was no oil.... , nothin..., 0... so i added like a 1.5L ....then took it for an oil change today cuz the noise wasnt goin away.... they changed the oil..and said that the engine is gonna die .... although it sounds MUCH better now......they said that its gonna get worse and worse...and it might just die any day.... its a 93 max ...auto...brougham..with leather seats...etc...i feel really bad i really hope the sound is gonna go away.... i got only 115 miles on it (182,000km) i just dont wanna find my car in a junk yard in a few weeks... i really enjoy driving it...... i drove grand am gtp, protege's , rx7, civics, chevy's, lancers and more.... i really like my max... idont know what to do

1.5 Liters is low, but not low enough to cause that much damage, unless that oil was pretty old and not protecting your engine like it should have been. How many miles were on that last oil change?
I think your problem happened when you downshifted into 1st @ 50km/hr. You most likely spun a bearing, so yes your engine is slowly dying.
