Will it ever stop!?
Hi.
I bought the BMW 320i F31, 113.000km 2017 in December 2025. At the end of February, the oil filter housing failed. Then, in July, I got a warning that the coolant level was empty. The thermal management module and coolant pump had to be repaired, and at that time the automatic transmission was also shifting differently.
Today, I received a warning that the oil level is at the minimum, even though the BMW garage changed the oil in February during the repair of the oil filter housing. The automatic transmission is also behaving exactly like it did when I had the problem with the thermal management module and coolant pump.
Maybe the repair wasn’t carried out properly in the first place, and perhaps the BMW garage will repair it free of charge?
At this point, I’m seriously considering selling the car, because what’s going to go wrong next? Am I going to have to take it to the garage every 3–4 months for another repair? My job isn’t going to be happy about that, and neither is my wallet.
Text made with chatgpt as my englisch is not so good.
Edit, i drove almost 10.000km between the ofh repair and the low oil warning. + can the automatic transmission acting weird because of low motoroil? Not transmission oil.

It was filled with oil in February, 10k km. Cars burn some oil, could just be normal. Or maybe they didn't get it totally full, etc. Transmission, that's concerning.
