Faulty Oil Sensor Replaced

BMWZ4 · 03-28-2011, 02:36 PM

Just an FYI - took my z out of storage a couple of weeks ago, went for an oil change last week and noticed on the weekend that the oil status via the iDrive was only showing "1/2" capacity.

Took it back in this morning and they diagnosed a faulty oil sensor (weird timing given the oil change the previous week) and then had to update the software in order to acknowledge the new oil sensor, which took ages to upload.

No big deal though...in the end all fixed and correctly displays oil level now.
