The first guarantee was on January 8, with a mileage of 9029 kilometers. At the end of August, the car machine reminded me of the maintenance cycle of the oil. The after-sales phone number at 4S on the 1st was also contacted, so I agreed to go for maintenance and made an appointment at 10 o’clock on Sunday.
Since it is the second guarantee, with the experience of the first guarantee, it is required to add 5.25 liters of oil this time to measure how much oil was consumed last time.

The discharged oil and old and new machine filters

About 5.5 liters of oil was released this time, so it should be normal to lose 0.25 liters of oil in 9467 kilometers!

While waiting for maintenance, the after-sales service called and told me that the oil level of the car filled with 5.25L oil was not enough, only half a compartment. I asked if I would add 5.25L if I confirmed it. At that time, I hesitated and said I would add so much if I confirmed it. I really panicked!

This is measured in the maintenance shop

I measured this myself at the door of the company, and it was less than in the 4S shop.

The version of the car that you upgraded after the first guarantee! The first guarantee was 0322, and the second guarantee was 0722. Could it be a problem with the car version, which means that BMW has changed the maximum oil volume to 5.75 liters.
The colleague who picked up the car together had not upgraded the car version. Let’s see if he went for maintenance in the next few days and filled 5.25L, and it showed full value. Last time, my colleague filled 5.25L, and it showed full value.
So I asked the car owners whose car version is 0722 if this was the case, and I was a little panicked now!

This time, 5.25L of oil was added, which was significantly improved compared with the first maintenance 5.75L. In the standard mode, the throttle became lighter and it was smooth as silk. It felt that the standard mode before the second maintenance was the energy-saving mode of the second maintenance.
