Ok, so I got first maintenance and oil change. After pick up, I checked oil level and it was max. Next day morning, driving to work, checked oil level - minimum!!! I reseted MMi - same - oil level on min. Went to dealer, they took it again, after 10minutes came back to me with oil level on max. They said that they didn't do anything, just engine was not worm. I told them that I drove it for 10km prior, enough to warm it up. Anyway, took it, checked it today afternoon - oil level shows in the middle. What is going on? Why my oil level goes up and down like toilet seat after oil change? Didn't have that problem before.... Any idea?

could be that the oil level sensor has failed/is failing. When it goes completely you'll probably get low oil warnings all the time. I got a dipstick for my Q because I don't trust the damn sensor. You might consider the same.

OK, thanks, how much did you pay for dipstick and where did you buy it, dealer? I might just do the same....

thanks for link.
I also consider changing oil myself, found all the info except how do we know how much oil to add with only electronic monitoring? do you leave car on (but not runing) so it shows oil level and start adding it monitoring oil level on the screen?

You don't have to monitor while filling the oil. The 3.2 engine holds 6.6 quarts of oil.

How about 2.0T?

make sure you check your oil after the car is warm up, shut off the car and let it sit for 5 minutes on level ground, then check the oil.
