The word I get is that they are waiting for a "flash" for the engine module that shows the car low on oil when it is not.

This IMHO is NOT the real case as a software fix of that magnitude is a couple days at most. My guess their waiting for new sensors or some such piece of hardware that can not be produced fast enough.

It's really beneath BMW to not tell the "real" story to buyers! My Wife is about to cancel as she thinks this car will be a lemon.

The bad thing about canceling is that it takes 6 months to get a Range Rover and I'm not a MB fan.
oh I dunno... it can take up to a day to flash an ecu/troubleshoot any issues...once they've written, tested and released the updated software...
