Offline | Assuming you have plenty of oil in there. It could be a fauly sender unit or oil pump as I doubt the engine would be worn/old enough to have pressure problems. I know it is possible to corner hard enough in an M5 to cause oil starvation. That is why BMW retrofitted scavenge pumps in the sump.... |

Offline | Sorry no useful ideas - I sent the first two fridges back because of damage. Which meant placing an order in April and getting it fitted in August! If you still wanted to get the model changed you could reject it - or ask for a discount if you want to keep it.If it's on one of the doors they could just provide a replacement as they are detachable |
