Speaking About Oiol......

Ok, so I am little lax ....

I have had my Z4 for about 8 months now and today is the first time I actually used the system to check the oil level. When I selected the option I got a "Measuring oil level...." message on the screen and after 30 minutes it was still 'measuring'. Is this the way it is supposed to work.... After a second try and anothe 5 minutyes It finally registered to the full mark.

And yes, the engine was running when I checked it !!!!! Manual states 3 minutes if still; 5 minutes if moving and up to 30 minutes if just added oil...(I did not add any oil)

Anybody else have this phenomenon ?????? Is it normnal ???? Seems excessive to have to wait that long.....
