I had the same problem aswell although it only happened occasionally
I have read somewhere it is due to the faulty oil sensor, but as KC said, worth to check the engine oil level as if the level are too oil, as it might damage your engine permanently.

Tell all your problems to AK and i am sure he will sort you out

Dont be turn off by all these faults,
Audi is worst than that,
and Merc are not far away
Does look to me more an elec problem bt will leave to the expert. I bought mine new and had 2 elec faults inthe 1st year.

Not sure which to get, might go with the OEM route or find a second hand OEM.

The redline shows how much differences between the front and rear (I know the front are meant to be abit lower)

Yes, definitely

and thats why my front wheels always pick up more dusts than the rear as all forces all go to the front

it wasnt right.

When the E60 came out, i thought it was a great looking car although some people still think it looks urgly,
But i am guessing i wont have the same feeling/hope on F10 :thumbsdown:
I am not sure about that, I thought the last E-class was ugly when it first came out, but then after a while it started to look better... the new 7 series too, I hated it when I saw it on photo, but when I see the real thing it was another story...

NEXT: Shadowline
If it wasn't for your LCI rear light, I would have thought you took a black n white photo ... actually, the NEXT after NEXT should be tinting the tail lights
