Andy - if the engine has been running you need to switch it off and then leave it for at least 15 minutes before the check oil level function is available on the info screen.
Don't we just love D4's and their foibles Uncle Ray's spare wheel protector
Limo Tint
Blackvue front & rear dashcam
Cruise control switch pack
Bodsy's remote for FBH
So - I want to check my oil level, and for about 3-4 days now my LR4 refuses to help. "Not available"...
Feels like a bad date where I've been stood up a few times!
Is this just a typical electrical glitch, or could something be done to sort it out?
Hi Andy
did you sort this?
I have the same prob. Tried all that's been suggested on this thread. Only thing left is 'try first thing in the morning' Going to do this in the morn and report back.
Just been out at 06.30 and oil level gauge working
Why it will only work stone cold first thing in a morning I do not know...

It isn’t a morning thing it’s oil temperature, liquids expand when hot and depending how hot give a different reading, just like tyres check the pressures when cold
On some older D4s oil level check when worm can be overridden by pressing the cruise button twice.It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

What worked for me..
Bonnet open
Drivers door open
Ignition on but engine not started
Select oil level on dash menu
If not showing press CAN twice in short succession.
Good luckIf things were meant to be easy, then I will soon complicate them....
Please note...
Anything I say is only from my personal experience and knowledge..
I don't assume to know everything, and know there is a lot I don't know..
But then I could be talking .. O
