MODEL
E60 (5 Series) with N62 engine produced from 7/2003 up to 9/2005
E63, E64 (6 Series) with N62 engine produced from 7/2003 up to 9/2005

SITUATION
After reprogramming with Progman V21.1 or V21.2 , the menu option for "Engine Oil Level" is then incorrectly displayed in the CID under the "Service" selection. When selected, it does not function.

CAUSE
The cause is a MASK or CCC coding error depending on the vehicle option level. Only vehicles currently at the integration level, or Vehicle data status: E060-06-03-515, are affected.

Important Note:
These vehicles are not equipped with the hardware to support this function.

PROCEDURE
On a customer complaint basis only, Perform a "Complete Encoding" using Progman V22 or higher (Target data status: E060-06-06-510).
This path must be followed to enter the correct coding data into either the MASK or CCC.

Refer to SI B09 05 01 for information regarding this Progman procedure.
