Rumors say that you can’t check the oil on the E90 BMWs. It doesn’t have a regular dip stick but an electronical one. You can check it via the on board computer wich is operated by the rocker and button on the indicator stalk. You can even check it while driving. The computer will also warn you about a low oil level before you run out and even tells you how much oil to add. Very convenient for the driver!
Unfortionately not so convenient for DIY mechanics. Though it’s more of a nuisance than a disaster.
And yes, my camera sucks at video.

lol, thanks
biltema oil 😀
Very convenient until the sensor malfunctions, then, extremely inconvenient and expensive. Its this type of extreme over engineering that causes some of these cars to loose 50-70 percent of their value in only 5-10 years. A manual dipstick tube combined with a dash mounted oil pressure warning light would be simpler and cheaper and allow for the same info to be easily available to the techs and drivers.
Glad you did!
Bro, don't use Biltema oil and then say its high quality! My old car overheated because of their "high" quality oil.
But nice video!
Yes, that oil is a definition of quality but maybe on Mars.
Omgahhhh I'm glad you made a video like this!! I just bought my first BMW and of course I don't want f*** up anything!!
Do you always have the option to check the oil level or only when you get a warning that its low?
Use a funnel if you are so sloppy pouring things.
Seats are dirty
Got a pre purchase inspection done said I just needed oil and a brake flush, I checked my oil level (2008 e90), says its at max… It does show the oil at yellow.
It does show I need a brake flush it's at yellow light.
If you want really good oil, dont pick shell on any castrol junk.. pick bardahl.. google it and make some research on it. Good luck using it!
+1l=add 1 liters?
thank you for going that trouble
My car smoke, e90 2008. I have changed oil separator, but still same problem with low oil , please help.
Funnel control. They cost $2.
