Asked by Doyle2018cd Nov 23, 2018 at 02:58 PM about the 2011 BMW 5 Series

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a question about a 2011 520d m sport. I
recently went to see a car and a person checked
the dip stick opening it a small bit and revving the
car and drops of oil spat out. What would be the
problem with that? Is it a sign that something is
going in the engine.
Thanks

No this would be normal oil pressure pushing up in the oil spout.
