Ok, thanks all. I thought I was losing my mind when I couldn't find it in the MMI. I may still be losing it ....

Me too, but interesting that the MMI sensor isn't included, as it's been around in other models for quite some time. In fact I had to buy an after market dipstick for my A5.

It's an MQB vs MLB thing...

Funny you say that, I bought a dipstick for my 8.5 S5. Our 3rd gen Mini Cooper S has no option for a dipstick, MMI only.

My daughter's Mini Cooper S Countryman also has no provision for a dipstick. At least my A5 and allroad had a tube, even if it was plugged off.

I'm fine with just the dipstick in the TT. Was just curious as to why I couldn't find the MMI readout. Now I know. Thanks again all.
