just been out on my dinner at work got bored and just decided to check my oil level on the car. the car's computer reads that it's more or less full. but I've check the dip stick and its on min. glad i got bored and checked. I'm not to sure what to do regards to the computer though. should i book it in somewhere to get it checked? bare in mind it had its big services with bmw not 6 month ago?
I thought you are supposed to check the oil level when the engine is cold??? Lots of people have different opinions on this.. personally I only ever check mine when the engine is cold.
got home and forgot all about it so car was left stood on a level ground for about 3 hours. everything seems fine. everything matches. don't understand why it was different at work. car was on level ground when i check it here. just have to keep my eye on it see if anything like it happens again. thanks everyone.
