Apparently you can do a check on the oil level at anytime, according to the drivers manwell.
Just out of interest, how many miles had you done since the last service before your engine failed, and please read and take in my previous reply. Thor1950

Just checked no manual way of checking. Whichs begs the questiin: when was the oil level last checked? Prior to the sensors breaking? Sounds like not enough...

2.7 ltr engine you have dipstick and meant to check weekly. 3.0 ltr engine check oil when message on dash says - thats what you pay a luxury price tag for. Spoken to a few owners and some 3.0 ltr engines never need oil between services; that's what you'd expect from a modern engine doing 12,000 miles a year?
As I said before learn from me - don't trust the automated system!
Think LR now suggest in later disco4 manuals to check weekly, covering their arse cuz system doesn't work, cheaper to change manual than fix problem!!! They can blame you then!!!
Anyway getting a recon done and trading it in to main dealer let them have a head ache!
