"Engine oil level OK"
"Measurement not possible at this time."
Add oil within the next 125 miles/200 km;
otherwise, the engine could be dam-
aged.<
"Measuring engine oil level...":
This can take about 3 minutes if the car is at
a standstill on a level surface and the engine
is running, and about 5 minutes while the
car is moving.
Keep oils, greases, etc. out of the reach of
children and comply with the relevant
warnings on the containers. Otherwise, health
hazards may result.<
If engine oil was added, it may take up to
30
minutes to obtain an oil level reading.
>
"Engine oil level below minimum. Add 1
quart!"
Oil change
Add engine oil as soon as possible, but no
more than 1 US quart/1 liter, refer also to
Adding engine oil below.
If the oil level is below the minimum value,
add engine oil immediately to avoid engine
damage.
Have oil changed only at your BMW center or at
a workshop that works according to BMW
repair procedures with correspondingly trained
personnel.
Oil types
"Engine oil level too high! Have this
checked."
Do not use oil additives as this could
result in engine damage.<
