Car stalling after battery change

Car stalling after battery change. UPDATE
Changed batteries today and put in the Optima red top which is supposedly the right battery for the 2.5 CRD. Drove home from the garage distance of about 7 miles. Car was parked for 5 mins and I started it to go to the shops and it stalled/cut out after 20 mins. Tried restarting it and it wouldnt start so I thought maybe needs fuel and I put in 7 litres as it was running low. It restarted then cut out again. Started it and cur out again. Final time it started and didnt cut out but was idling rough. There was a strange noise coming from the back and it was definitely from the back and it woild stop when I pressed the brakes (i wasnt moving at this stage). Noticed the oil light had came on and the engine management light was on I let it idle for about 5 mins and drove it back home. Oil light went out on its own nut engine light stayed on
Any ideas?
