Interesting. I've never tried to measure the oil using Bimmerlink. Is it done after the car has warmed up after a drive or when cold? Engine on or off?
Interesting, I can see the old pump number on Toyotas parts site. Maybe it is different for EU:

Along with the new one: https://autoparts.toyota.com/products/product/pump-assy-oil-15100waa03
Yes turning the car off for a bit can get the function to work, apparently that has to do with oil temperature. You can test this by trying to measure the level again once the oil temp hits around 97°C. Either way, the pump is not working as intended and I plan to keep the car for a long time...
He said there was no other part number in the system for the pump since 2019 for eu 3.0, nothing was changed since release, its the same number so I guess thats how? He checked if there was 01 or 02 in the end and there was none, saw myself.
Interesting, how do they know that's what pump is in your vehicle? My understanding is 15100-WAA01 is in 2021 and below, at least in the US. But the pump is inside the oil pan, so I'm not sure how they could tell you which pump you have without taking the car apart.
I asked about this at dealer, my car is 2019 EU spec, apparently my oilpump number is 15100-WAA03, with no further replacements/revisions in parts catalogue, so I guess mine is metal one from the start?
Cant measure oil lately so was exploring options, seems its the sensor then...
Oilpump will normally not exceed 5.5 bar under wot
Normal oil pressure at idle is between 2.3 bar-2.7 bar
I have a 2020 and sometimes my idrive will fail the oil measurement so I would turn the car off for five to ten minutes, turn it back on and it will complete the oil measurement. You can...
...of people replaced the oil control valve, and the oil level sensor. These had no impact on resolving the issue. The core problem is the old oilpump. I haven't taken one apart, but apparently the old oilpump part # has plastic internals that start to fail from temperature shifts in cold...
I bought my 2020 a year ago, it has a Pure 850, Pure stage 1 trans, Visconti stage 1 fuel pump, port injectors, full e85, etc etc. Made roughly 700, built and tuned on Ecutek by P2uned. I didn’t pay for anything from P2uned, so consequently getting answers from them is tedious. I’ve heard Norris...
thanks. Been trying to figure that out. So what is the intake manifold cooled with, ie. Coolant too and does that system have a separate pump? Wondering if it’s worthwhile to have a water misting system in front of the front heat exchanger triggered at a specific temp?
GL-4 and GL-5 fluid are not interoperable. These are for different kinds of gears. All transmission oil is a gear oil, but not all gear oil is a transmission fluid.
GL-4 oil has a relatively mild amount of extreme pressure (EP) additives that protect the gear metallurgy and geometry under the...
...with one of my local Toyota dealers and they essentially told me not to worry about it. I’ve researched the forums and it seems like it’s an oilpump/sensor issue. I was wondering if I should be prepared to replace the pump/sensor? Any additionally info is appreciated.
Thanks!

Update - Replaced vanos central valve and confirmed actuators working. I did do an oil change and now seeing 20 degrees less at the maximum point to cam actual drops off (previously seeing dips into the high 50 to low 60 range and now nothing below 80 degrees). Think that 20 degrees is enough to...
also , i been noticing some weird noises coming from the back end , not sure if its the exhaust or something else , but it sounds kinda like a whining sound , but not like a supercharger whine , more like a sad puppy whine if that makes sense , and it only happens when i’m at low speeds , but...
...drive shaft + unplug rear connector + remove trans cooler hoses + unbolt bell housing). Take the pan off. You swap your valve body, trans oilpump, plus some plastic fittings over to the new trans. Put the new ATS pan back on. Put the trans back on the car sloooowly.
I cannot say enough good...
