An engine dipstick is as vital to it as the crankshaft that it spins. Without a dipstick, there is no way to know how much fluid is in the crankcase. If yours has become lost or broken, replace it today and ensure you're oil level is always topped off.
A frustration too many BMW owners share is the inability to physically check the oil level. BMW began replacing traditional style dipsticks with new level sensors that display your oil level on your iDrive system. In theory, this could be great. An electrical, sensor-based oil level system would allow for continuous monitoring of the oil level and immediate warning in the event of oil loss. The main problem with this updated system is the sensors themselves and the sub-par electronics that control and report this information to the iDrive system. In practice, the oil level sensors have proven to be slow, inaccurate, and even faulty, displaying wildly inaccurate measurements. Needless to say, the team over at Bimmerworld felt this needed to be addressed with something a little more reliable. Returning to the tried and true method, Bimmerworld now offers their very own S65 Oil Dipstick Parts Kit. This kit includes everything you need to install a dipstick in your M3.
