Why is the oil dipstick of the BMW 5 Series stuck?
Years 2003-2010

Answer

In some BMW 5 Series models, it may happen that the engine oil level control stick is stuck or rather difficult to extract. This situation is normal especially when the engine is hot, due to the expansion of the various elements. In this case, it is often sufficient to apply more force or wait for the system to completely cool down.
