So, unlike "normal" cars, these BMWs have to be put on a "oil measuring" mode that lasts about 1-2min., not including the warm up time.

Is this what you guys are doing to check your engine oil level? Or am I missing something.

This is also a bit of a complain that it seems unreasonable to NOT have a $10 (tops) dipstick that can help you get an instant read out of your engine oil level when doing an oil change yourself.
