325_driver 422 Report post Posted September 27, 2017 Does anyone know the specific reasons that could trigger the orange oil inspection light on the e46 2002 330ci m54 engine? It comes on just after i start the car and then goes away maybe 10 seconds of driving it. I checked the dip stick, looked like it was over full - is it possible that over full oil can trigger the orange light on start up. Any thoughts would be good ... Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
