Oil
My low oil light came on two days ago. I have a service appointment on Wednesday. Should I put two quarts in now or should I just wait until Wednesday?

Why don't you do a "measure oil" from idrive first to see what it says.

Just dump a quart in if you don't live close to the dealer. Dealers top off for free. If you don't live close just ask for spare quart of oil for emergency, they usually won't charge.
I only went through 1 qt before my first service. Not bad for a Twin Turbo V8. My M5 went through a quart every 2 fuel up.
