Need Help

[RyanTheGoated]

hello all,
I have a major issue and I need some assistance. Will I was driving at highway speeds with a trailer in tow I heard a loud rattling noise and started loosing power. I pulled over and popped the bonnet and saw some smoke, I then took a look at the dipstick to check the oil and a large amount of smoke came out of it, I let the engine rest for 30 mins and proceeded to drive off, 1st gear is rattling really bad and started loosing power again. If anyone knows what the issue is I would appreciate it.

Thanks

Do you have any coolant left in the radiator?

You’d better post some photos. The dipstick so we can see the colour of the oil, the radiator coolant so we can see what it looks like via the radiator cap.
