spot on, perfect write up

just did an oil change on my new-to-me 2011 xdrive 28; it only has 26k miles on it...piece of cake...Mobil 1 0w40 Eu spec is on sale at WalMart, $20.99 for 5 quarts...drained oil was VERY black...BUT

I wanted to verify the accuracy of the I-drive oil level indicator; so, I intentionally put only 6 quarts back in..expecting to see 'low oil' indication of some kind...

I-drive says 'Full' ??? even after driving it a couple of days.

what's up with that ?? a defective oil level sensor?? already ??? oh, for an old-fashioned dipstick.

regards, dan
