Thats not an A3/s3/RS3 as the MQB does not have the hardware needed for this feature. Also, look where the screen meets the dash, you cannot see the removable trim / cover.This just popped up at another forum, someone who has a '17 S3 apparently has oil level gauge on the MMI service & check?? Never even heard of this one PFL or FL, @DJAlix any idea??

That level display is for engines without a dipstick

The oil quality sensor that tells you when an oil change is needed is different, I believe that only measures the quality/viscousity of oil not volume.If the MMI is meant to know when more oil is required*, then surely there is some sensor to measure how much there is?
*because according to Audi the oil interval will change and isn't just a static number.
Yeah it is, I have it on the A5 along with:That level display is for engines without a dipstick

There’s will be a sensor somewhere, otherwise you wouldn’t get a low oil warning light
If there’s no oil quality sensor then how does variable servicing work then?The A3 has an oil level high and low alarm only. No continuous oil level measurement, no oil quality sensor.
Oil analysis, is very complex, difficult and beyond economic viability to fit to mass produced bread and butter model cars. What would it measure and how do you define 'oil quality'?If there’s no oil quality sensor then how does variable servicing work then?
