Hello,

Recently, a low oil image light has been displaying on my dash, but I am not sure what it is. I have checked online and have also looked at the 1 series manual, but I have had no luck. Would anyone be able to tell me what this light represents and what potential issues would I have if I don't tackle this issue right away.

Thanks,

Mark

Nothing to do with oil. Your coolant level is low.

Potential issues include overheating and engine damage.

Thanks for getting back to me. I have added coolant and everything is working well.
