4925 miles and down a quart
 

Anyone else burning oil? And no dipstick :tsk:

Some things never change.

no.

and you can check oil in iDrive ;)

:doh: no kidding true :rofl: That's how I know. I got the little oil can thingy the other day but not since. The engine wasn't running at the time, I had the key on what used to be accessory with the radio on. I thought about it today and I went into idrive and although the oil service light said OK, when I went further into the menu I go a CAUTION - oil at minimum, add 1 quart. Why don't I get a warning every time I start the X? :confused:

Why in hell couldn't they just put one little dipstick on that dude?? I still think those engineers that pulled it are laughing at us.

Heard recently at the BMW service counter: "I paid so much money for my car and they did not even give a dipstick" :rofl:

This is a common problem with the 650's....so I would guess the same for the E70. I just had mine topped off last Thursday. It wasn't at the quart level but I knew this was a known issue so I was watching....Phil

Same oil burning issue with the current M5 and the e39. Seems like a trend. Not having a dipstick would be really annoying.

yup, sounds about normal.

The no dipstick is really not that bad. Who wants to look at dirty oil anyway. If you just want to look cool wiping your stick, I guess you'll suffer with the new technology:bustingup Phil
