    Check the oil.

    The trouble is that you have described a problem but have checked nothing at all. You offer no useful information on trouble isolating steps what so ever. Even if given an answer you are just going to have it towed to a mechanic anyway. You aren't going to attempt a thing. You need to get acquainted with caring for your vehicle so a good first step is learning to check the oil. Go look it up and do it. Then call the garage to have your car towed in for repairs.

    Pull the battery and have it tested. If it tests bad, replace it.
