Is it possible that my car engine get broken without any notice?
the starter could have failed which could cause a noise when trying to start.
another possiblity is the timing belt these usually should be replaced every 75000 mile at most.

If you don't have a warranty on your cars engine etc. then it's possible to have problems....you never know when something is wrong with an engine unless you check it out with a competant service tech. if you bought this auto used then you may have bought someone elses problem..
First of all its a focus, of course it can die without notice.
If the car is out of warranty you are out of luck. Fluid is not the only thing that makes a car run. The quality of gas, driving conditions, suspension lubrication, are all factors as well.
Get someone you trust to check it out, its probably not serious. Could just be a battery, since I'm not sure what sound a screwdriver makes when its dropped into an engine.
You can't ever avoid problems with cars no matter how well cared for. There are usually no rhymes or reasons for various engine components to go bad. They just simply wear out. Sometimes with little or no warning.
In this case it sounds like it might be a starter problem but it could be a clutch failure too among other things.
It does not sound like anything underhanded has gone on.
Sorry...What you can do is have it fixed or not.
