Yes it is. It came on Monday morning. I made it 3 weeks...

When I shut her off this morning, the oil warning lamp came on. I got back in and started up about 20 minutes later and the light was gone. Systems and oil all showing OK

I made an appointment for next week.

Good luck, let us know what they find...

Good thing you leased this vehicle. I wished I had leased mine and I would still be driving it...

Yes - the oil level showed fine at first. The next day the oil lamp came on again and the level did show low on idrive. The oil consumption is consistent with my X5s. I burned a quart in 5000 miles.

Appt is Wed for the CEL again. We'll see what it is this time. I know it's leased and the dealer is only a few miles from where I work but this is getting on my nerves.

I don't blame you. My new Lexus GX 460 Premium has to go back to the dealer for a software update for the stability control after Consumer Reports put out a do not buy rating. The update takes 15 minutes, but the dealer is 2 hours each direction from my home. Lexus is going to pay for a tank of fuel, but I'm out half a day fooling around with something they should have found on their own testing.

I hope your CEL is something simple. If I had leased my X5, I would still be driving it.

Good luck,

Craig

It sounds like you just need a quart of oil?

Add mine to the CEL list

5.6K miles on my 3.5d when the engine light illuminated yesterday. I already had an appointment to replace the DVD player due to Navigation disc read errors that have occurred over the last month. SA indicates sensor replacement, and it is being shipped overnight for installation tomorrow.
