Unlikely due to oil leak alone (is oil warning light on?). More likely the oil leak is a symptom of a different problem. Have you checked error codes?

I would consider taking your car to a speciallist or dealer to have it examined, sounds as though you could have multiple issues which could cost you alot if you dont get it fixed soon
