have you checked the oil? does your oil light come on during turns or anything? Have you changed the oil? Theres a distinct sound when you have a spun bearing. Take a video, or bring it to someone that can tell you whats wrong.

yea the oil light means you have ridiculously low oil pressure
meaning
low oil, oil pickup/passages is/are clogged, or bad oil pump

cross your fingers you didnt spin a bearing already
how many miles? what motor?
