Where in idrive do you check to see the real story though?
Um, car is parked in the garage, but it's under vehicle information I believe with an oil can logo symbol. Once it reads it gives you a graph and will have a write up of the warning if its low or full or it will just say level OK
hope this helps.

btw, I've always let the level drop until it says +1L that way I just add the quart and it's good to go. Although I have added 1/2 a L just to test the gauge once or twice when it gets low before the +1L warning comes on. I keep 2L in the trunk for those times.
