Hi my 19 year old son has bmw 1 series 1.6 registered 2006. Petrol engine. The car has electronic sensor (beyond my intelligence prefer the old dip stick) Sensor was showing slightly above minimum level so he added 2.25 lt
(Manual says add 1 ltr he did not bother to read manual) kindly note after adding oil the sensor has not moved it is where it was at start! He expected the sensor to move towards max level. Fyi he has been watching the sensor for period and it has been registring the level correctly. He is concerned
1.Should the sensor show correct level after he has driven few miles.? (How many)
2 sensor has gone faulty( prior to adding oil it was ok)
Any advise or help is much appreciated thanking in advance.
