Hey, your experience does sound a bit worrying. Can you by any chance remember how expensive it was? And have you encountered any more problems since then or are you under the impression that everything is fine now? Thanks for your feedback!

Hey, it cost me €165 back then because there wasn't enough oil in the engine. Since the mechanic topped it up, everything has been running like clockwork. I haven't had any further problems so far. Hope that helps you!

Hey, I have a 2011 BMW 5 Series diesel and had something similar. The indicator light flickered from time to time. After some hesitation, I went to the garage. The whole thing was actually less complicated than I thought - it was simply due to insufficient oil. Please visit a trustworthy mechanic immediately. I wouldn't hesitate for long with things like this - better safe than sorry. Good luck, buddy.
