View Full Version : I drive a new BMW 540i - should this need topping up with oil all the time?

The dealership said that new BMW's need topping up with oil. I think this is rubish. I have owned 3 new BMW's and I ahve never had this problem before - unless this is something to do with V8's?

It might be the sensor though - it keeps going off telling me that I am below the one litre minimum. I then put a liter in and the info tells me that the sump is now full!

The car hsa already been in once - they said they replaced the sensor but who knows.

Is this a problem with V8's - or is it a software problem on the 5 series?

Any help would be apreciated.
