"Measuring engine oil level...":
This process can take approx. 3 minutes
when stopped on a level surface and
approx. 5 minutes while driving.

"Engine oil level below minimum. Add
1
quart!":
At the next opportunity, add 1 US quart/liter
of engine oil.
If the oil level displayed is below mini-
mum, add engine oil immediately.
Failure to do so may lead to engine dam-
age.<
Do not add 1 US quart/liter of oil until a corre-
sponding message is shown on the Control Dis-
play.

"Engine oil level too high! Have this
checked.":
Add oil within the next 125 miles/200 km,
otherwise the engine could be dam-
aged.<
Have the vehicle checked immedi-
ately, otherwise engine damage may
result if too much oil has been added.<
Continuous exposure to used oil has
caused cancer in laboratory testing.
For this reason, any skin areas that come into
contact with oil should be thoroughly washed
with soap and water.
Keep oil, grease etc. out of reach of children and
observe the warnings on the containers to pre-
vent health risks.<
"Measurement inactive. Have this
checked.":
Do not add engine oil. Before continuing to
drive, note the recalculated remaining mile-
age until the next oil change service, refer to
Service requirements on page 74. Have the
system checked as soon as possible.
Oil change
Only have an oil change carried out by a BMW
Sports Activity Vehicle Center or a workshop
that works in accordance with BMW guidelines
and uses appropriately trained personnel.
