idrive says oil is ok and is max. pulled the stick, jsut tad above min.
This is exactly the point of my original post - is the oil level sensor just a yes or no switch, or does it tell you the actual level of the oil in the sump? Has anyone ever seen the green bars at mid level? Or are they either 'Max' or 'Min' and nothing in between?

From what I have seen so far, the oil level device is a lot less sophisticated than BMW would have us believe.

Long live the dipstick!
