Ok check this out,
With HC around the corner and me being on call for work all next week,figured I would have the oil changed even though I had more mileage to go before it was needed. So I replace with synthetc recomended viscosity change filter and have oil meter reset leave and drive home.Next morning get in go to store have about 12 miles since oil change and bam check engine light comes on.Any suggestions would be great!especially with homecoming around corner

just a suggestion. make sure the oil filler cap is tight and the dip stick is completely seated.
Incidently how do you like your z3?
