oil message to check oil.

What is your question?

85k mi. Changed oil, after 2k mi. Message says check oil. Checked oil none on dip stick. Added oil to normal level. 3 weeks later and minimal miles driven, same message. Checked oil and none reading. Cranked engine to check running and it started showing half on dip stick. Why was it dry when checked hot the first time and dry when checked cold the 2nd time 3 weeks later?

Many oil change shops do not realize the European vehicles have extended oil capacities and they under fill them when servicing. Make sure your next oil change service is performed by knowledgeable technicians and replace the correct amount of synthetic oil as recommended by the manufacturer.

you checked the oil with the engine running?

Both ways. Off and cold and off and hot. Since my question, I found that it is supposed to be dry on your first routine check. It eventually settled at about 1/3 dip stick. At 85k mi why would it suddenly start using oil.
