Default Oil level on computer reading -- --

As above the oil level on my computer is now reading -- -- after constantly reading 0.7l this happened once before and it soon came back, this time it's been a couple of days and still not got a reading back.

Any ideas? Sensor issue?

Cheers!

every now and then mine does the same afte ra track day but always goes back, usually same day

Yup this is normal, happens to me after every trackday but comes back on the long drive home.

If you go for a decent drive 30-60 mins and it doesn't come back i would get it checked out.

Normal as above... It recalibrates every so often. I only do 8m or so a day normally so it can take a few days for mine to reset but always does and always back to 0.6l. Threw me the first time as well though... As Bealo says best thing to do is go for a decent run.

Mine says "oil service + 0.8l"

Good or bad?
