Got a low oil indicator

EDIT - It was a faulty sensor -

I had this before on a an E90 335 (with tune), I topped it off and it went away, but I was getting close to a service interval.

Going to be cautious and get the oil changed, but in doing research on this, the N54 is notorious about giving this indicator for reasons outside of the actual oil level. Also seems the sensor can fault for various reasons.

Assuming this is not a faulty sensor....

My question is, on the 1M, can a tune and a mid-pipe burn through larger amounts of oil that need more frequent changing of the oil? Say every 4-5k miles? Not tracking the car, mainly just spirited canyon carving.

Thanks for any input!
