Serious Question needs a Serius Answer?!

The question for anyone who has GOOD knowledge of the 335i/335d engine

The dealer serviced my car its first service the other day..

Can someone confirm whether the 335d takes 7 or 7.5 litres of oil to bring it up to the maximum on the dipstick

When i returned home from the service (approx 15-16 miles)

i checked the oil and it was below the minimum

BMW sent out a technician who filled the engine with another 1.75 litres to bring it up to the maximum

Do you think any damage or lasting wear could have resulted to my turbo's or engine due to the oil level being so low? i did drive up a steep gradient hill

Any help would be most appreciated

No The oils that BMW use are very good and even drained would protect you for the short time you drove. Enjoy
