There's a crush washer they replace on the oil drain plug and maybe they screwed up and it's leaking.

Dear BMW, can we get our dip stick back, please?
Oops. Sorry I wasn't clear. I took it in. They did a full check and found it had the proper amount of oil. They put new oil in and we're going to see. It's not leaking or burning oil. So they think software.
Gotcha. Which software version is on your car? Check-in iDrive. This doesn't tell which istep level, but gives an idea.

Could be a bad sensor as well.
