SF2000x5 is on a distinguished road
I've seen mine show full and within the same week, it will show 1 bar low.

What I thought was weird is that it showed full when cold but iirc, oil expands with heat. My thought is that the oil is up in the cylinder head so oil level is lower in the oil pan. Makes sense I think.
