MB did this for a few years and I think (as stated) BMW does as well. Since it has an electronic dipstick they felt it wasn't needed.

Maybe I'm old fashioned but I don't understand why anyone would get rid of something simple and proven like a physical dipstick... Especially when the electronic alternative can lead to catastrophic failure if the device itself fails.

Personally I would check the headlamp fluid before they burn out from the heat.

Don't forget to check your blinker fluid too!

Also make sure your air pressure reservoir is full before any long distance trips.

I am embarassed and somewhat proud I was able to derail the entire thread with a single post. Sorry GT3, it happens.

It's not a big deal considering the question is already answered.

Hopefully he'll check his front quarter panel solenoid before he checks his oil.
