Faulty Oil Level Reading ?

Clubber · 17-01-2015, 12:03 AM

Hey everyone,

Couple of months ago I started seeing drops in digital oil level on my cesil. Instant readout (hold the sport button ) shows it full almost all the time but the digital average keeps dropping .1 in every 3-400 kms.

To be on the safe side, I installed E46 M3 oil stick for actual level check and the car always shows full on the stick. I replaced the oil lever sensor (12617508003) but still the same. Dropping constantly on average readout. I know the cars has adequate oil at all times but hate seeing the digital reading dropping like a fuel gauge as I am on a long drive.

Any suggestions ?
