Can it be IMS bearing failure? There has been no noise from the bearings earlier on! But just before the oil game out, the was a sound like empty beer can has been dragged underneat the car...
Car has been driven only 118.000 km.
All ideas and tips are valuable!

Something blew a hole near one of the chains. Pull the oil filter and look at it, if it is full of metal, drop the sump cover; if that is also full of metal, the engine needs to come out and apart regardless of what has failed.
