Hey so my oil service light just came on.. im 50 miles passed due.

Right now i only have the JB3 on map6 running 93 octane. And i got in my car today and felt like it didnt have the intial power it always has and the shifting was funny like the boost was dropping and than coming back up, i cant explain it.

But does bmw has some kind of system in place to lower boost/power when oil service is passed due?

I changed it about 2500 k miles back just never reset the light and now its on, im going to get a oil change, i was just wondering if anyone else knew or heard of this?

2500 miles is overdoing it...
5000-7500 is a good interval... just get a BT tool to reset the meter yourself if you change your own oil

So does anyone know if it takes away power? when under a service oil change light?
