'REDUCE ENGINE OIL LEVEL' WARNING

Tiguan 1.5 TSI
Original Poster

My car is a 2019 1.5 TSI wet-clutch [DSG] Tiguan, I'm getting an 'oil level too high, reduce it' warning. We drained some oil, still nothing changed, we even left it lower than it should be, same thing... I replaced the oil level sensor, same result, is there anyone who can help?

It's not from the oil drain plug - it comes from the oil level sensor, the one inside the sump.

This happened to me when the oil change was done on a cold engine - once I did the oil change again, it went away right away.
