Has anyone experienced problems with their Stelvio Oil sensor.

You certainly need to become used to its foibles. I think the indicator only covers a small volume range and any top up takes time to register. It is easy to over-fill the engine with oil - which is not good. The manual details a topping up procedure. I add oil in 200ml stages, taking it for a run between each addition. I don't believe you need to maintain a "full" indication. One or two segment down is probably fine. Discuss this at the next service.
